Friday 5/2

I'm far from a Dundalk expert, but does Empressario in the 8pm not look like good value at 14s?

Eddie Lynam has been very quiet of late

Anyone know why?

The 8:30 looks like a right cracker of a race. Brosnan must be wishing that Political Policy would just fcuk off and stop racing against it! I don't think I could write a horse off in that race, so I am just going to go for an outsider and take the value. Shalaman at 8/1 won this race last year and while it goes in as top weight but with the benefit of a 7lb claimer on-board. It's contested races better than this and generally ran very well. Hoping the more proven form can show here, although I am a little worried at backing this one off the back of a fairly extended holiday.

Sure Hobbs and Johnson take the last with the favourite

Cat 2:25 - Hellorboston 7/1 - been watching this one slide down the ratings and today it drops into a particularly low grade class four race as top weight. I have no idea what this trainer does be doing to horses, but I can't say that I am at all surprised that the Rooney's pulled their string. On past ability, this horse should be showing an awful lot more than what it has so far, so let that be a warning. Small win only bet for me.

I like the look of RUMMAGING in that race.
10lb lower than when he was narrowly beaten here back in October, and looks like a first try over 10f could suit.

Far too many unknown quantities from top yards to chance such small odds.

Perfect Ten running in the last in Dundalk, tipped by someone last run but came nowhere. might be one to watch.

It could've been me,i'd know the trainer and a lad that rides out and they'd give you the heads up when they like one but the problem is they think they've a chance most weeks(and yes they think the same again tonight) :rolleyes:

In saying that i'll probably have a bean e/w on both of theirs tonight because at least i know they're trying. Catch lass in the 8 o clock is the other.

I must know someone you do. I was told awhile back that Perfect Ten was schooling better than the higher rated Catchy Lass. Also told that the handicapper has been far too harsh on Catchy Lass, horse probably needs a few races to get the rating down to make it competitive.

Catchy lass ran well there in the 800
Finished 5th, but seemed to have a bit left in the tank, maybe next time
Backed it each way with power's who were paying 4 places. Just missed out

Brosnan 9-2 in 8.30 for me
Has ran close to Political Policy few time, nice weight advantage here against P Policy
Should beat it tonight I think.

An improvement over his last run at least..... third from last!

The only way is up!

Jaysus that was a tight finish in the 8:30
you gotta feel that Rummaging would have won if not fluffing the start, definitely one for the tracker.
