I’ll leave it in the garden for 3or 4 days. Do I look stupid? No don’t answer that .
Leaving a greenhouse in the garden? I wish i'd have thought about doing that!

In the 5:00 there are a fair few newcomers which means a fair amount of unknown in the race. There's two that look kind of interesting to me at huge prices and therefore i've had a small speculative ew play on both:
Karakatta 33/1
Dheisheh 45/1
Both 7 places with Bet365 ew extra
This race shows what a complete disconnect there is from O'Brien and "the rest" in Ireland. They paid 650,000gns for Lippizaner whereas last nights move horse, Marketta was purchased for 1,000EU.
Marketta's trainer Brendan Duke has had a winner and a runner up in this race in the last two seasons and that explains to me why there was a move for it last night. I think this will now drift after the initial enthusiasm. Bolger does have a good record in the race and he saddles two respectable looking types. On pedigree the one of his for me is almost certainly Poetic Flare and I would expect that one to be in the shake up.
Lippizaner is a real blue blood and the suggestion in his line is that he could be an early type. The betting suggest though that the yard is not all that confident. A quick look at the previous winners tells you that O'Brien has never won the race but a more in depth study reveals that he has never had a runner. The yard won with their first four juvenile runners last year and my understanding is that they have around half a dozen ready to go. Watch out for one called Horoscope.
Forever My Girl hails from a family of winners and is being nibbled at in the market. If she follows the usual family trait she wouldnt be quite up to winning at the first time of asking.
The one that really caught my eye was The Blue Panther who comes from a family that includes many winners. The dam won on her debut so this could be the sort of early type that this trainer is capable of producing. My one negative over him is the trip as most of what you see in his line are milers. That may not stop him running a place.
Conclusion; A win for LIPPIZANER, place for THE BLUE PANTHER.
Just to add to this, I had noticed AOB had 5 entered in this and went with this one only. One would assume he would send his most forward horse to this race as can't be too many 2yo races going forward, so you would think this one must be ready to run. The drift is alarming, but is this down to liquidity, no on course pitches, or the ground (Uncle Mo), doubt its the latter as the horse should go on the ground even if Mo was a dirt horse. 9/4 looks very big now..
Nice start. Only other bet is small wager on Lustown Baba in 3.30 7/1(C&D winner)

Well,was on my mind too,but Ive gone for TITANIUM SKY Here.was often highly tried in pattern Company last Season,so this First foray into a Handicap could be a Good Move.Going for Mokhalad in the next, CD goes on the ground has won first time up before, trainers only
