Quite sweet on the chances of 3.50 Leicester Rio Ronaldo 9/2. A half brother to a number of very decent horses including Group 1 winner G Force, US Group 3 winner Louvain, Listed winner Lajool and Group 3 placed Desert Poppy, Rio Ronaldo ran out a very impressive winner on his latest start when just pushed out hands and heels to score by 1.25L and I think a 6lb rise for that victory is very lenient. Although this race has a much deeper look to it, I think Mike Murphy's 3 year old is still well ahead of the handicapper off a mark of 83 and I think it's going to take an extremely well handicapped horse to beat him.

I see Matt Tynan sends three over to Leicester tomorrow. Don't know much about two of them, but Maontri looks well chucked in off a mark of 79 after reaching a career high rating of 98 when it couldn't stop winning last year at Dundalk. Ground should not be a problem, but it has been exclusive the the all weather for a long time so it'll be interesting to see how it goes over a straight 7 furlongs on turf. Going from previous form when the horse won, I would think that it should not be a problem. 13/2 early price with Coral. If this horse performs anywhere near to the kind of ability it showed last year, then this price looks massive.

I'm seeing what I can find out about both of them, gotten word before.

I like Gold Flash (3.50 Leicester), on the face of things he looks to have a bit of work on at the weights to reverse the form with the re-opposing Charlie Croker from last time out (3lb turn around for a length and a bit beating), but I think he could well have been in need of the run there as he came to win the race at around the furlong pole but faded late on. He is also entitled to improve on that performance after only two career starts, pedigree is all about speed and also a half brother to the smart Hallelujah so reasonable to expect that he is capable of more. Very competitive race but happy to take my chances with the 8/1 available tonight.
1pt Win (8/1 BetVictor)

Secret Witness also out again tomorrow - 4.05 Windsor for those in need of an extra cliff horse... Surely he has to win one of these soon!

I have gone in again. This 1 might break me.

Your old mate Mubtadi lines up at Windsor.

the groutch

3:55 Redcar - Big Thunder

has won off his current handicap mark before, and never quite looked to be comfortable over the staying trips last season (which is unusual for a Prescott horse).
dropped back to 10f today, hopefully he'll give a better showing and is worth a punt at 10/1

Scudamore goes to Cartmel for one ride 3:35 vengeur de guye for Lucinda Russell 13/2 if starting positively could be a nice winner

Maontri seems to be the one anyway! Will have a very good chance.

Now available at 14/1 with 365 and that looks too good to ignore so I have topped up with an additional 1pt Win, no way in the world (that I can see) that he should be four times the price of the top 3 in the market.

Another great spot Francie. Big thanks to you and Shmee for the heads up. Great punting.

Thought the run of Rio Ronaldo is hard to decipher. Squeezed up at the start and a bit keen. Travelled through the race powerfully and probably the last off the bridle but he found very little when asked. Puzzled by it but there's no doubt in my mind he's better than his current mark.

Got strong word for Queen Alphabet in the 7.30 in Ballinrobe tonight. currently 9/4, could be worth a few quid.

Cheers lads, nice spot Francie, I just asked a lad who is close to yard and said she should be bang there.

Only watched race now there, battled well at end when looked like Moore was gonna come up on inside and do us.


I'll follow this gamble on Lonan here now, 10s into 7/2.

*Lonan got some pain in the belly, that was awful.

Ballinrobe is only a c*unt of a spot, anything fancied tonight trashed bar Eshtiaal.

Just look at the winners.

6/1, 16/1, 16/1, 10/1, 10/1 and 33/1 there at the end.

Placepot paid €2,447.90, says it all.
