3.20 Leopardstown - STEPHANIE KATE 8/1 There seems to be some cracking value at Leopardstown tomorrow and for me Stephanie Kate is an outstanding bet at 8/1. Some of her recent form is high class and she could make a mockery of her opening handicap mark (123). On her latest outing she was defeated 2 1/2 lengths by the 137 rated Our Girl Salley (recieving 6lbs) but was in front of a 125 horse (What A Charm) and a few other decent rivals including Golden Sunbird (130s). Before this Stephanie Kate had got within 3/4 of a length of Knockfierna (BEST MARE IN IRELAND LOL) who has since went on to defeat Shop Dj before giving Sir Des Champs a scare (ran out when in with every chance), she then went on to win a grade 3 next time out. The selection has also finished close to First Lieutennant this season and was of course 5th in the David Nicholson Mares Hurdle behind Quevega last season. She has got some real decent form and runs to a consistent level - I think she is certainly capable of winning off 123 tmz.
No one's mentioned Sir Des Champs yet. Couldn't possibly back it even at a tempting price like 6/4. If you back it it's basically a guess that it's got the ability to beat a proven performer.
14:05 Cheltenham - Chance du Roy (No write-up, in fact sweet f.a., just happen to fancy it quite a bit. Still flushed with success on Oddy's Jairman hoss today!).................
I expect 1833 to be smashed in from best price 9s tomoz in the big race at Donny... u will c y in the mornin... not for me tho... tough race and I like Galaxy Rock... Over in paddyland couple interest me Citzenship at 14s in 2:45 and Marlay Park 3:20 at 16s preference is for the latter both tough races...
Have read on betfair forums Pricewise goes Marlay Park and 1833 though also got a text saying he might be going for another as well... I believe he'll go the first two and the latter is incorrect info.
didn't see your post but seem to have the same horses! well I got two of three you mentioned in your post and also a third one which by the looks of it is wrong.
No worries George. Those are the 3 tomoz altho i cant hav 1833 n both races in paddyland r vry tough...
Interesting, I heard he was playing in the 2.45 in Ireland but not on the horse you mentioned. I agree all 3 are wideopen races and although there's a lot to like about his selections there's also a lot to like about some of their rivals
well tbh mate ive had an e/w double on the two horses in Ireland I thought Pricewise was tipping, marlay being one but citezenship not being the other!
I also think in 1833 runs to the form that saw him 3l to somersby on level (and not to his hennessey form) he'll have a great chance but I don't dislike the french import who tipped up at bechers LTO. Pipes got a 10lb claimer on his too in that race which is eyecatching. To sum up it looks a cracking day's racing but a tough one to bet.
I really like Alasi in the 1:15 at Donny... Webber has dropped Alasi back to hurdles for this weak Grade 2 i think she is a better mare than Lifestyle and will have gathered confidence from her victories this season... I like Galaxy Rock in the main race at Donny... bombed in the Welsh National on bad ground but better ground tomoz shud be in his favour and the form of his win at Cheltenham couldn’t be much more solid with Hennessy, Becher & Totesport Classic Chase winners in behind... took abit of a risk backing him at 11s earlier in the week (didn't know whether he wud turn up) but now he has I am pretty confident and think he has a great chance at around 8/1... 3:10 at chelters I expect Broadback Bob to win n give hendo a 3rd winner of this race in last 5 years...
