Farmers Shopping Day - 8th December

maximo31

Not the greatest of cards in Clonmel but Ruby should do okay.
Heading myself for the afternoon so any tips / fancies would be greatly appreciated.......
Fancy Theatre Run to go close in the 2.00 and a bit of EW on Bellgrove in the 3.05.
Some good races across the pond too. Few quid on Rock on the Moor i reckon.

2:50 - Captain Hox looking really nicely handicapped. Having a small bet on this tomorrow at 6/1.

Cooper will do well to make the 1st unless he gets the helli as i spotted him in Naas cuirt just there.

Lovely ride from Ruby on Clondaw Warrior.

Very strange ride, travelled like the winner.

Why would WPM have patrick on POTP and not Ruby, very strange and Patrick thought he was on Pegasus..knob

famagusta

It was a qualified riders race, that's why paddy was riding

Francie Barrett

Don't see what Patrick did wrong there. He had the horse well placed for the finish and it found nothing and was beaten by the better animal. The fact that it failed to win two mediocre maidens before that with Ruby on-board tells its own story.

He let Benson get 1st run on him, and also I wouldn't say that Our Duke and Tombstone are 'mediocre'..Bad ride IMO

Just watched the race expecting to see Patrick finishing like a train on someone who got first run, that is not what happened at all.

There was really nothing wrong with that ride, he kept tabs on Kagnay all the round but just didn't have the pace to go with him when it mattered. The better horse on the day won.

Peintre Celebre

He's useless anyway regardless of a single ride

Have to agree, came right up behind the front two but didn't look like he wanted to pass them.

Prince Connoissuer taking a few quid in first in Dundalk tomorrow. V well handicapped if up for it.

Wouldnt trust Pylonthepressure he dogged it in Leopardstown before, he had every chance here it was a rare normal ride from Mullins done nowt wrong although I would say anyone taking 1/3 on him over hurdles must have money to burn I remember him falling off a 1/10 in that very race a few years back.

Ah lads if you're blaming the jockey and not Captain Hox himself you should go back and rewatch that race jockey tried kid him into it but the horse clear as day had his own idea about the game with his head carriage.
I don't know the horses previous but he fairly looked a dodgepot today.
