Buveur D'Air has 6 possible opponents at Sandown on Saturday then, I see. The most intriguing potential adversary has to be the unbeaten juvenile Torpillo. Some potentially fascinating racing this weekend, on both sides of the Irish Sea, but will that cruel mistress, Mother Nature, defeat everyone?!? That must be the question right now, team.
No bumper at the Leopardstown festival - what will stick make of that I wonder? Doesn’t seem right somehow
Down Royal 3.25pm Eclat Des Mottes 5/2. Nothing hugely surprising here and not inside info but have been told by a friend who has a mate that provides some good info that this is winning today. I have backed it to win which I would not normally do midweek but he seems mad mad keen on it..
newcastle,2 30: TAKINGRISKS ran a more than solid race in the rowland meyrick chase last time out,and was in front of wakanda then,so thats a real boost to the form..
newcastle,3 05: SUNNY DESTINATION is at least a bit more consistent than the majority here,and is also quite unexposed.also well treated for his recent efforts,so might go well today..
Football win treble this evening 6/1. Everton to beat Hudd away Wolves to beat West Ham Rags -1 v Burnley
20s into 10s for the Dufresne lad for March ,won well but dont think he beat much.Anything catch your eye yet Stick for the Cheltenham bumper? I would expect Mullins will up the ante next month for sure.
He looked pretty raw to me today, he obviously has a lot of talent but he will need to be more professional at the festival if he’s to run well. Not that I will see the race, I will be on the way back into town!
Way too early to be getting involved mate but if I had a free charity bet that I had to put on now it would be going on ASK FOR GLORY. That said, I have no idea what Nicholls has planned for the beast.
