    How is Mr Woods fav in the next at Ayr? Failed to complete on 7 of his last 9 starts and the 2 times he did finish he was beaten over 20 lengths.

    Munster was our favourite, very up market and conservative, still got my Munster man to remind me of my stay

    I thought he was Nass. Bit of an anxious moment 2 out when it looked like he wouldn't pick up but he had cantered through the race until then and probably took a few strides (and a slap with the persuader) for him to realise he needed to go and win the race. I think he was thinking he was at Aintree though, he cleared some of the fences with a couple of feet to spare. It was a bit of a dawdle today but he was wanting to go quicker the whole race - pulling double for the first 2 miles. Looks a decent bet for the Foxhunters - into 11s with Betfair for that heat, no change elsewhere (16/1 still generally available).

    Possibly some decent sorts in the Ayr bumper especially with McCain represented but I really like the look of the Irish raider DR MOLONEY. From a small yard but thry have had one very smart bumper winner already and though this one was a relatively cheap purchase it does have a very nice pedigree.

    Good stuff Oddy, straight to the festival he goes, I am very pleased with that (albeit the field was very poor) needs to get a fast pace and he will do well.

    Bumper winner looked good Stick.

    Baby Shine runs tomorrow if it gets the go ahead. Still expecting a win against It's A Gimme?

    A top notch Supreme prospect runs in Ireland. Galileo's Choice goes in the 2.35 and faces a decent challenge from Terminal but should be good enough.

    Quel that horse was burnt off by SLC - beat him for speed that day and he shaped as if he needs 3m the other day lol

    Galileos's Choice is a very interesting hurlder but I don't think he will be a supreme horse

    Hello lads.

    Didn't get a chance to get on earlier but had a few bob e/w on Beau Dandy at Ayr,won at 6's..ran a cracker LTO at Catterick..after timer alert!!!..<laugh>

    Some great action tomorrow post freeze with trainers desperate to get a run into their Cheltenham contenders...makes for better than average fare.

    RV,you not out wenching tonight?...If memory serves me right it was always a great night to pull with disenfranchised wifes/girlfriends plotting revenge sex and the like on the partners that neglected their romantic/carnal needs.

    Christ i'm off to get me coat!...the wifes away out already...<laugh>
