    Missed the early price but would be all over COCKNEY WREN 11/4 Huntingdon 5:20
    Two very promising runs thus far and from the yard that has the best wins/runs ration in bumpers this season. Fry is on fire at the moment with 8 wins from 16 runs in the last fortnight. This filly looks primed to take advantage of the wfa and fillies allowance.
    If you would prefer an outsider I like the pedigree of Kingsley who is a 28/1 shot.

    Bet today will be Green Bay in Race 3 (13:50) on the Chantilly fibresand track. Noticed he's been quite well-backed in this tight handicap for 3-y-o's, and is third favourite early doors on the PMU at 7/1. ATR quote him at 9/1 on their list. Very nice looking racehorse, if nothing else!

    Good luck today everyone!

    Have been looking at the card for the Thursday! Can't wait for stick to get stuck in the bumpers! But have just had a lump of the 4/1 this morning for Empire Of Dirt and my reasoning why; falls in to the category of looking out for horses that have either skipped or performed badly at Cheltenham. In which he didn't have a hard race and the form was to bad to be true! Will appreciate the step up to 3m and his Irish gold cup form hasn't worked out too badly lol reminds me very much of Don Cossack the season he performed terribly in the Ryanair then blitzed the field in this exact race. Cue Card was well beaten imo when he fell and although didn't have a too hard race either there is more improvement in EOD and even now he 7/2 is a great price imo

    Close race that 310 Andrew . I had to side with Lochnell the tissue price looked bad but i can live with the 2s on offer i think the jockey booking swung it somewhat for me but i dont doubt they will be 1st and 2nd just what way though!

    I just had a look ahead to Wednesday's card at Leopardstown and saw one I fancy for the derby. Venice Beach was a real eyecatcher on his debut here in October. He looked really green but quickened well when he realized what was expected of him into second. I've had a decent bet at 50/1 but 33/1 is still available.

    Also Motherland is entered in the last who I had hoped would have went for the triumph.

    Green Bay ran well to finish second to the top weight at Chantilly, at 10/1 (PMU). Got nailed very late by 1/2 length. Quite pleased with that performance and one for the notebook in France.

    Thought we had that in the bag turning for home but the winner stayed on really well and actually won going away. Decent animal I reckon.
