    Howdy all,

    Not a bad card today in Naas and the highlight being the 2:45, the rematch of Bog Warrior -V- Flemenstar, it's a real shame neither are going to the festival.

    I really can't see the form being turned around in this, Bog Warrior really had Flemenstar well covered last time. It's a slightly longer race at 2m4 but I can't see a reversal.

    Gary O Brien has gone for Flemenstar which is worrying though, the market is

    BW 4/5
    F evens

    Interestingly enough Boyles are the other way around, you could back both at evens and possibly make a small return if you have used BOG firms.


    I did €40 on this treble at 17/1 in the hope of a lovely bonus for Tuesday :)

    Bog Warrior, Ballynacree (2.15) and Operating (5.20)

    No worries. I thought the same, but hadn't realised Flemenstar was a point winner

    I can't see the form being reversed either. Have had a nice few bob on Bog Warrior.

    Not sure Nulty.

    That was a load of bollox anyway, ground shifted to yielding after my bet. Not sure why Davy took him so wide all the way around.

    Has anyone else notice Gary O Brien rarely gets it wrong.

    Did Flemenstar do it well?

    Another bit of sex tonight for Peter Casey.

    Flemenstars jumping is excellent

    Just saw the result. Something had to have been amiss

    Yes as soon as he took it up he put the pressure on Bog Warriors jumping. Flemenstar jumped brilliantly but something had to be amiss with Bog Warrior.

    They were saying they did not find a problem with him today, he seemed to be travelling well but emptied and was eased soon after.

    Flemenstar was brilliant again though.

    Bog warrior is a typical over hyped soft ground horse, watched the race twice and he couldn't match flemings jumping when he took up over 10 furlongs out.

    I think Bog is a very good horse but needs it soft to heavy... He overjumped at xmas and fell, today his jumping got worse after the pace was increased.. They did the right thing giving chelty a miss.

    Really impressed with flem, he'll take some beating at Easter in the powers...
