Mr WHITAKER 14/1 EW Close bros

Won at the track lto with going soft heavy in places so going won't be an issue and gets in here off bottom weight.
5 of the last 9 winners won lto.
12 of the last 13 had run in the last 45 days
Trainers only runner at the festival

BOSH !!

Excellent tipping, fair play you saved my day.

STB. · 13-03-2018 6:57pm

Not many bets today. Jers Girl disappointing.

Mixed results for Mullins. Nice one for Paddy.

Anyway onwards and upwards.

Mischievous Max in the Coral tommorow to get the ball rolling 25/1 get in.

Ignore all the guff you hear, the going stick reading is 5.3 which is proper heavy ground with the possibility that it might even get worse with another 10mm of rain expected to come. First race or two might not be too bad, but by the end of the day, the ground is going to be fairly cut up, which should make the final race of the day interesting. Think Rocklander in that one might just be one of the last still going and would fancy it to be there or thereabouts. 33/1 best price.

Happy enough with that day's work.

Nice pick gazza. Bruce Forsyth and the price is right @ 14/1.

Was 9/1 this morning, finished 13/2. Ahead of the possee.

Are you sweet on anything tommorow ?

Johner · 13-03-2018 7:12pm

Really enjoyable days racing with some cracking finishes! Roll on tomorrow.

Shemale · 13-03-2018 7:13pm

Anyone worried about Samcro after Elliots day? Serious dift on deplottingshed before and ran accordingly too.

jimjamcos · 13-03-2018 7:22pm

Was quite sweet on MITCHOUKA in the Fred Winter but after Elliott's day today I'm not so confident

I see you had footpad and apples doubled.

A 1 euro Lucky 31 paid 2,500 for your 4/5 of your other selections at this mornings prices.

Nice picking.

My Bets for Day 1
Summerhill Boy 8s 2.5ptwin/ Debachut 1pt ew 33s
Vintage Clouds 9s 2 ptwin/Beware the bear 1 pt win/ Yala Enki 1 pt ew
Faugheen. 3 pt ew 13/2. 3 pt Win Antepost at 11/4
Midnight Tour W/O fav 40s 1 pt ew
Rathvinden 7s 3 pt win
Any Second Now 13/2 2pt win, Typhoon Prince 1 pt

Best of Luck all.

Two decent wins and a decent place effort. Good Start.

Dissapointed in Faugheen just not the horse of old. Interesting Ruby saying about the 3m hurdle for Punchestown. Be nice to see him go out on a high.

Cant believe how well melon ran. Great race. Fair play to the mick jazz backers nice ew touch landed.

Summerhill boy could be a classy type to come back after the mistake and footpad was awesome.

Apples Jade very dissapointing hopefully things pick up for Elliot starting tomorrow with samcro.

Johner · 13-03-2018 7:47pm

I just watched the Supreme again there, that was an amazing performance from Summerville Boy considering what happened at the second last and then the last. Unreal.

Agreed, thought coming to 2 out "he'll p!ss this". Not sure how much ground he lost them also hit the last. Very good performance and because of his not all that fashionable connections he could again be under rated if he reappears this season
