    Dundalk and Epsom today good card there. Duke of Firenze has never won fresh but he's too well handicapped to ignore in the opener. 9/1 looks absolutely huge he has plumetted down the weights and has ran well in the last two Dashes here (23lbs below his unlucky run last year when near today's fav). Well worth chancing

    Tookiedoo looks a decent bet in last at Dundalk, ran a decent race on debut for yard when 2nd at Southwell and not hard to think that will have something on hand off 45 for new yard having been rated as high as 71 in the past, surface looks to have gone to sh1te at Dundalk lately but given she handled Southwell well enough it probably won't be too much of an issue for her.

    Same yard have one have in the first race that is supposedly well enough thought of at home and they had a 2yo debutante win a maiden by miles there recently but the blue blooded Coolmore one at head of market going to take some beating and only 7 runners kills the EW angle.

    St. Georges Head is 5/1 with bet 365 w/o the fav which is a good price. Will be backing him to win and w/o fav.

    A very random one which I'm interested in is the 3.15 happy valley, a hoorse called kungfumasterpanda. He was previously named maths prize, a very high class horse for Richard O Brien last year, he was sold for a small fortune to hong kong and will surely be running much better than his first two outings very soon. Stables jockey is on him for the first time today too. Anywhere you can get a bet on on this?

    Very interesting. Currently$91 on Sportsbet in Australia. I'll have a cheeky EW on it!

    He wasnt a high class horse. He was rated around 100. Very good class handicapper.

    101 - Without any figures to hand I'd imagine less than 5% of Flat horses in training in Ireland would be rated higher than 100. Might even be more like less than 2%. That's fairly high class in my book!

    Kungfumaster panda was one of two 100/1 shots. The other one won :o

    Espirit de lumiere 7.40 dundalk
    Finished a neck behind Lyrical attraction last time over 10f and with blinkers on for first time and 2Ibs less than when they last met I think it has a good shout. Favourite Whitsundays Island not superb form and making polytrack debut.

    On tookiedoo myself, the horse was suppose to be a syndicate I'm ins horse but cotter pulled her. Hopefully it wins.

    No luck in the running there, caught in the traffic. Unlucky.

    That Whitsunday Islands looks to be a tricky yoke, Donnacha took him back and lost plenty of ground as he tried to make progress on the outside around the bends. Surely that yoke has no business running on a tight track and would be lengths better on a straighter turf track?
