December 31 Racing

Whats everyones thinking on todays racing - might be a chance to make a few quid for the drinks! Couple of decent races:

1.20 Warwick - Wichita Lineman and West End Rocker go head to head again. Rocker finished second to Wichita Lineman at Chepstow, losing by just a head and is now ten pounds better off up against him again. However it must be said that it was Wichita's first time out and has since . Should be a good battle between those two but I'm a big fan of Wichita Lineman and he seems to be a class above. At even money in a five horse race with McCoy on his back I think I'll be on it for a few euros.

1.10 Uttoxeter - Carutthers looks a good favourite here. With Negus de Beaumount on his first race out since February and seemingly the second best here, Carruthers runs last season (finished first to Nenuphar Collonges and beating others such as Hills of Aran and Lodge Lane) were fairly good and now stepping up to 3m he finished 2nd on his first run at this distance in October. Looks a nice bet even if the odds are short.

1.15 - Punchestown - The glaring inclusion in this race is Willie Mullins Ebaziyan who I've been a follower of for some time (sometimes resulting in disappointment!). Ruby is on him for his first of this season and it's a course he really likes. Hard to see him being beaten and at 5/8 on Betfair not exactly a massive amount of money to be one. One to look out for though is Derravarra Eagle each way at 25/1. It's an eight horse race so he could well feature in the places having finished 3rd to Ebaziyan last January over the same trip and course.

Treble - Ebaziyan, Carruthers, Wichita Lineman @ 4/1
E/W - Derravarra Eagle @ 25/1

Unlikely to be racing in Warwick and Uttoxeter tomorrow, its freezing over in England. As for Ebaziyan, he looks like a lay for me to be honest, I know Mullins horses are flying at the moment but he's one horse that I don't rate too highly. Granted the field is poor enough and he should by all accounts (well, according to the ratings) win easily but if I was to back anything in that particular race it'd be Sabina Park e/w.

tramore is also on and punchestown. I see Dave duggan went for 'wheels up'. I would have gone for the other mamanus horse in that race.

Good. It was -7 there last night and they said it would have been raceable today and it's not forecast to be as cold there tonight. They have covers for the track there.
