    Was told to look out for an O'brien horse called Holbart stepping up in distance a few weeks ago, cant say the person who told me is somebody who might be connected in any way to the stable or owners but he was confident and the information was quite specific about the plans for the horse.


    Had forgotten about it until yesterday when ATR showed footage of him and a few other O'Brien's horses doing some racecourse work. He is entered in the last race at Bellewstown on Wednesday night. I have no clue of what price to expect but the race does look pretty decent.

    I may not even bet on the horse at all but the info might be of use to somebody here.

    Was pulled out before last declarations yesterday. I got the impression from the ATR footage that soft ground might suit, though has ran below form on soft before, so who knows. I see that hes still in the UK Leger which is a stretch for sure. Ill keep an eye out in Irish 12f+ races over the next few weeks.

    Casimir road is one I tipped a few times in the past runs in the 5 30 Galway.
    The trainer says he expects the horse to run well but is reluctant to advise anyone to go in too heavy as the horse has been a bit disappointing in the past.
    He has dropped a few pounds in the weights and with a 5lb claimer on board could run well.
    His best form would make him a good ew bet @16s and as PP paying 4 places (12 runners) and I will not be too shocked should this fellow win a few euro ew is advised.

    Nearly forgot,but as posted already here PP did pay 4 places.

    Initially there were 15 runners but PPs 4 places offer applies no matter how many non-runners there are.
    There is some real value as in the case of Casimir Road- a fancied horse at a big price (20/1) if one can get 4 places ew in a 12 horse race.
    Casimir should have been 3rd at least as he was tightened up on the run in but PP paying me out made me happy.

    I posted this a couple of weeks ago.Legatissimo ran on all too late and shaped like a horse that needed further.
    I did not get word today but I backed it ew as I know it is highly regarded in the yard.Weld has a very short priced fav in the race but I am hopeful that the step up in trip will suit Legatissimo in the 4 oc.

    A long range tip worth remembering.
    I was told about this filly early in the year before her first run and she should be unbeaten except for a little bad luck.
    The ground stopped me from getting stuck in yesterday but did well on the race with a little on Legatissimo and backed the 2 nd ew at 16s.


    I can report that the filly is going to run at the breeders cup.She is probably the best filly in Europe up to 1 and 1/4 miles on good or faster ground so conditions should suit in the US.
    She will now be prepared for the states so I suggest we start saving now because she has incredible acceleration
    and is just the type for the breeders cup.

    No but had a good bet win only,took the shine off what would have been a very good day and I thought Joseph OBrien would have kept up with the pace on one that stays further.
    The trouble with tips is we tend to have more on than we do when we think one has a good chance on form alone,won a good few quid on the day and I suppose I should be happy enough.

    Casimir Road is doing his best again today,if he runs as well as last time should have big chance and is well fancied.

    Word was flying around work here yesterday for She's No Bimbo at Kempton 9.15 tonight. Don't know the source of the tip so wouldn't advise having a whole pile on it! The money does seem to be down alright though.
