    Rupert Lamb takes the 8:20 Punchestown? Surely?

    One for me today Whispering Jack (10/1) in the 4-10 Fontwell.

    Hasn't shown much in his most recent outings but has tumbled in the weights as a result and is now 11 lbs lower than his last win which was just over a year ago. The ground should be perfect today so I'm hopeful of a big run as are others judging by the fact he has been well backed this morning

    Pure thrown in and to be fair should be winning on old form. A 10/3 chance last night yes, but now he is backed into as low as 5/4. Still 2s with BV but at the price, not a hope for me. After failing to finish in his last 3 runs this year, falling twice and PU LTO. It's a penalty kick all the same, new owners now and I believe they are in the bookmarkers business also. I'd be leaning with Pivot Bridge, whos being backed also from 6s into 4s.

    Another Mullins horse, Away We Go in the 6.20 should run a big race and the 8/1 on offer this morning was a good e/w shout for me.

    After watching first race there at fontwelI I really don't understand why jockeys are told to stay out wide for good ground.it very rarely works.
    I'm talking about the ride on china town boy

    Forty Foot Tom ran much better than the bare result suggests in what was possibly the best handicap chase ran in Ireland last time out possibly making too much use of himself. He is effectively dropped four pounds for that in a much easier race today he could outrun his odds of 20/1

    Is Sir Scorpion the horse to take out of the bumper - Tom Mullins' horse not emptied by taking on Willie's hotpot?

    Traded odds on from a BSP of 38, picking it up two out dont think he stayed. Could run a big race over 2 1/2 next time
