It’s disappointing to see only 4 places being offered by B365 for the NRNB Irish National market at present, it’s s mind field of a race as Mullins & Elliot enter so many. I think I’ll wait until Monday to see how the markets moving as it tends to have more of an impact on the winning horses unlike the British ‘Nationals’. My choices at present are Measure of my Dreams & Jury Duty.

Interesting day’s racing at Fairyhouse today. Some quick thoughts:
2.05 Free Ranger. Ran much better than finishing position reflected in the Ladbroke and has a leading chance on ground he will relish
3.15 Mount Hanover Will be his last run over hurdles before going chasing. It has been the plan to come here for a while. Ground much faster than he has run on before but full brother won on good ground so wouldn’t be put off. (Guaranteed to be withdrawn due to ground now)
3.50 Petit Mouchoir we’ll know within 20 seconds because, surely, he has to make the running this time doesn’t he?
4.20 Ordinary World (and I realise I sound like the Chairman of the De Bromhead fan club by this point). Obvious stamina doubts but I just don’t see where the pace is going to come from and this horse has been overfaced for three seasons.
5.00 Total Recall While I must admit to being perplexed by the Mullins jockey bookings here, this horse has the ability, form and stamina to win this.Last edited by Bayoffreedom; 22 April 2019, 12:59 AM.

Last year's race was run on very heavy ground. This year it will be quite fast and this will be a big help for Whisperinthebreeze who beat Cadmium 10l in February with Jessie saying that the quick ground made all the difference. Decent ew chance at 20/1 or thereabouts.
