  • Irish 2000 & 1000 guineas

    It looks like it's going to be soft ground.

    Pretty Gorgeous 5/2 for the 1000 and Mac Swiney (Waiting on price) for 2000 for me.

    Mac was best price 12/1 i think yesterday- obviously prices down as final declarations are in 2 mins.

    12 have been dec'd anyway.

      Pretty gorgeous will surely take all the beating if Joseph can get her ready first time up

      That fillies mile form is superb

      Van gogh and mac swiney become interesting if it is proper soft ground

        The soft ground would certainly be in her favour wouldn’t it. Shale the danger but she won’t have her ground by the looks of things. Donnacha should have ran her at Newmarket!

        I’m holding onto a roll up with Van Gogh for the Derby as the last leg - considering the cash out now as surely a run here would be pushing it to turn out again at Epsom.

            Mac Swiney was a tasty price and got his ground. Good win.

              Hopefully pretty gorgeous gives us the irish guineas double tomorrow

              Cant believe he went off that price given the ground

              Was expecting him to be punted

                As was I. Hoping Joseph has her properly tune first time out.

                  Youd hope so

                  If not him and donnacha have completely bungled the starts to the season for her and shale

                    Great call FF and HTR with Macswiney

                    Donnacha certainly seems to have f***ed up the start to Shale’s season. I suppose the conditions can’t be helped which explains her absence tomorrow. She would have had her ground at Newmarket so you’d have to think they weren’t ready to go again at that stage.

                        I'd put Pretty Gorgeous' run down to fitness. I don't think Joseph's have been primed first time out this season.

                          Hard to see Empress Josephine being the winner apart from trainer and pedigree: form was nothing special except for handling the ground ok. But several others had better form on soft ground. Maybe the system is back the unsung O'Brien runners!

                            With the 2 best horses running poorly it looks a very weak renewal

                            Won't be following either of the front 2 going forward personally

                            Though empress josephine is an unexposed full sister to the top class minding so who knows

                            Nothing tends to come from that far back at the curragh so can mark her up

                            One to watch next time maybe
