    I see the entries for this were out today,anyone got any early thoughts on this?

    For what its worth Let Yourself Go is a horse ive always liked(and backed) and i could see him getting close if he gets an uncontested lead. Take out
    a poor run behind Fosters Cross at Galway(wasnt right by all accounts) and he looks like one that could improve again.
    If he does get that uncontested lead and finds his jumping rythem then its possible he could find out the suspect jumpers in behind.

    Very hard to fancy this one. Trainer is tilting at windmills even entering him but I suppose he's not going to win much off his mark and is fatst running out of other opportunities. If half of those entered turn up he won't be in the first five imo.

    I presume Zaarito is in it and in that case, he should go close.

    Im lumping on this had a good win last time out and was very unlucky falling in previous races.. Hes a good horse coming from a good stable

    I couldn't be backing Let Yourself Go under 12/1. He hasn't got the distance yet at this grade(looks like he will alright) and against Osana and Zaarito and Kempes getting to grips with the fences.

    Will be waiting for next decs to look closer


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 182 ✭✭deewhy


    Psycho - have been waiting for this .... TM believes Psycho would win in Fairyhouse & Punchestown.... from the horses mouth, I believe!! I think Zarrito is the horse to beat but this fellow has a great profile and a wind operation could well have solved his ability to close out races. But I think this could be a good e/w bet (provided Carberry doesn't ride him!!!)

    distance not a problem, ideally wants 3m on good ground.
    Zaarito is a class animal cant see psycho getting involved on all known
    form.Interesting to see if mullins runs sportsline?
    If i said the least of the trainers ambition for let yourself go is this race
    (see 3m good ground) would people be surprised?

    Nicanor has some E/W value @ 20/1 .Ran 2 good races in february on heavy coming second to kempes at fairyhouse and winning the other at navan. Also ran a cracker when coming second to an caothair mor in january when beaten by a neck. Hell love the ground and has won at this distance before and his price is too big to refuse.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 53 ✭✭Nero Ceasar


    I believe zarrito's jumping may well be found out again on sunday with the maguire horse making it a true test of jumping, i'll be laying zarrito.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 18,335 ✭✭✭✭UrbanSea


    Think it is a very open race. I think kempes and roberto goldback have serious shouts.

    What price will you give me on Zarrito ?? Currently 3/1 on Betfair will you lay him at 4/1 ?

    3.6 to lay on Betfair. I can't see him doing you this favour :D

    I think Zaarito has an excellent chance although with his jumping record 5/2 might be on the skinny side


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 564 ✭✭✭Clemon


    Did a 5er E/W on Nicanor @25/1

    Ive already laid him at 3s so sorry wont be laying anymore. Im not saying he wont win as i said already he is a class animal just with his jumping i thought he was a lay at 3s. If ground was soft or better i would lay your 4s as i would be certain let yourself go would jump him into the ground ,now that angle is gone im done with this race as a further betting prospect.

    mmm, 14 posts and not a mention of Shakervillz, :D, I'd better throw him into the mix since this will be my bet on the day. 4's at the moment. Looks on the upgrade since the switch to chasing and this looks a poor grade 1 to my eyes, but then I do think that a lot before novices actually run and a couple of them turn out to be top drawer! :o

    Well I'll throw Roberto Goldback into the mix as he'll be my bet!

    with ground agree and will rev f/cast with shakervilz:cool:

    Some one might want to tell me why Nicanor is 20/1 when Kempes is 13/2.

    Other than the Cheltenham run where he got hampered, this looks a bit long does it not? Course form, and would have pushed Kempes to the line with a better jump at the last in Feburary.

    e/w Nicanor for me thank you very much

    Laughing all the way to the bank. I think Will Hill still have 25/1 but that means a trip.

    Kempes for me at 7/1....

    zaarito the obvious one
    worthy of a decent bet
    only worry is a clear round

    He did have it in the bag before the fall.

    Zaarito was cruising with a capital c .. Nicanor held out the back for most of the race horrible ride from carberry .
