Kev will have the numbers but I think if we get spammed they go towards the total, few years ago we had the Russians invade and one or two others have crept through since, Kev introduced a registration system that beat them though….

From the Declan emails.

You may have noted the lack of Willie Mullins trained horses in the past few weeks: well apart from the yard's general annual absence from the Down Royal fixture, an internal issue has arisen: apparently, the main gallop at Closutton has encountered problems, and to remedy, the gallop has been re-laid and dressed again in the last week. This has upset the natural order of the training regime and it might be worth bearing in mind if horses racing from the stable do not run up to scratch in the next few weeks. If you are an avid punting fan of the yard, it may be a case of proceeding with a deal of caution until early December. Of course, a break in routine, may be troublesome for some horses and not others.

nothing major but worth sharing.

I've cashed Letsbeclearabout it for the A.Bartlett as he won't jump hurdles until the new year.

Thanks for that. Fits in with and explains what I heard about some running below par and some not running at all.

Just mentioned over on another thread.

But of interest with regards handicapping
Proschema only got a 3lb rise for his run the other day which I didn't expect.

Entries for punchestown would have you seriously excited, in for some weekend if half of these get declared to run

I love the report recommendations for drug testing in Ireland.
Although the testing has been found to be of international standard.
They have recommended that every favourite and first 5 placed horses is tested using hair samples - in every race. Plus random testing.

The hair sample tests are key as they can detect steroids in them better than other types of test like saliva etc, and sometimes finds historical traces, as steroids if administered properly will leave the system in a few days and go undetected with most other methods of testing and even hair testing.

In a period of 6 months last year, they tested 71 hair samples on race days in Ireland.

Not exactly thorough were they ???

Best tip is to buy shares in the Labs that do the testing and analysis, as they're going to be a lot busier.

Calagogo-G.Elloitt looks interesting in the Pertemps qualifier on Sunday @ Punchestown. Already had a prep at Cheltenham. 17.5/1 (boost) AR market??

Just a question im wondering if anybody has any idea about, for the last few months I log in to my ladbrokes account everyday and use their daily €1 free bet on a cheltenham bet, I dont really use this account apart from the free bets.

The question is I have other accounts open in family members names that I opened before cheltenham last year for new member free bets, and im wondering if I could do the same thing on those accounts without arousing suspicion?

I mean if I log out of my account and log into another on the same device and use that free bet would the accounts be linked?

Not sure about Lads but i always used a diff device to log into my 2 Skybet accounts and they never had a clue. Used my phone for mine and laptop for the one in Mrs Somers name. With the one in my name i only ever logged in on mobile data and used wifi for hers
