    Stoichkov 16-1 ew
    Good experience over this trip and course. Has run 3 times already this year so should be
    in top shape. On bottom weight and has a good draw. Good value for a place at 16.

    In fairness to Donnacha o Brien if the plan was to not win he done it perfectly.

    cost me a nice wee double found every bit of trouble imaginable.

    The usual ride a few winners and the head swells up on these jockeys. He's riding the heaviest backed horse of the night so he decides to do a spencer on it. Sickens me when a jockey like wilson renwick who's doing his best to get winners get's a 24 day ban for a frivolous whip law and jockeys who do there best to lose get nothing.
    Did he ride the horse to obtain it's best possible position?:mad:

    Looked a bit green to me. He had a gap and was well into it when horse started to pull a bit to right and act up. He then lost that gap,gave it up by trying to control horse.


  • Registered Users Posts: 35,814 ✭✭✭✭BorneTobyWilde


    Stoichkov's jockey caused a lot of the trouble, she entered straight 2 lengths clear and sat there, not once encouraging her horse to pick up. Half way down the straight she still didn't touch horse, everything backed up behind her.
    Once you turn that corner you go for it. I thought it was strange that she did not pickup pace at that point. Kepted on in the end for 5th . I think a place was there if she had ridden the horse once around the bend.
    But more importantly everthing that started racing behind her had no room to let loose.

    Mallory heights with a couple of wins on the all weather when trained by cumani might have an eway squeak in the next. Has shown nothing over hurdles lately but a return to the sand might see him recapture a bit of form

    I really like this.


  • Registered Users Posts: 35,814 ✭✭✭✭BorneTobyWilde


    Sparani raced up there from a bad draw, at what expense .

    3rd
    ew win at least.

    Having 1 little e/w bet this evening on an old pal of mine Blue Ridge lane at 25/1, he's badly drawn on the outside but it will make no difference to him as he always misses the break and drops out the back. He gallops all day and always finishes strongly so hopefully a good pace here will see them coming back to him. He won off 68 in the summer and now races off 61 and on top of that his jockey has a 10lb claim,i don't know anything about the jockey but just hope he's fit as BLR needs to be kidded along all race.

    MOUNT FLORA !!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I follow your posts and you are regularly on the mark. I just dont see it, sure its got a lot less weight than last week. However even with the extra 10, Bomber Jackson is in fine fettle having just been touched off last week. The one two were miles clear of the rest. Infact I see Bomber Jackson's previous win has been on some way franked by Sar Oiche who won earlier, albeit in a maiden. The jockey is my only concern.

    I should have stopped at the first sentence, Sting. Emmet McNamara needs a steering course.

    Well done son. Thank God for cover bets @19.5

    Good stuff Sting. Delighted for you but can I ask what made you go in big?

    Mount Flora is one that I was looking at and is normally a type I really going for but when I studied her more, I just couldn't have her. She's been on the go all winter with not that many promising runs. She the type who just looks too difficult to predict turning up.

    Granted I was tempted to have a small chancy bet but even at that price I couldnt see the value??

    Anyway, hats off!! Great pick!
