    Steps To Freedom doesn't look all he's cracked up to be. Hasn't beaten a great deal yet, and 'flopped' (or true form?) twice in a row now.

    This years crop of Irish Novice hurdlers are so overrated. They ran true to form at Cheltenham, Trifolioum was the standout going into the race and ran like it. Midnight Game is perhaps not working well right now but all they do is beat each other and get way overrated for it. Alderwood had ran a huge race in a competitve handicap at the festival off a fair mark.

    Anyone remember whether Iffraj offspring like juice in the ground? Seem to remember they do so I've backed the Fallon horse Charles Tyrwhitt at Warwick

    Would be some day to get those four up George, i think Allee Garde has decent claims, can definatly see a place if he gets around safe. Well done on first 2.

    Crap jumper Oddy. He's losing a length at every hurdle. He was supposedly working all over Oscars Well which is why they think/thought he was a monster. We know Oscars Well is a dog as well so it's fairly safe to assume STF is just another hype horse.

    4.10 Fairyhouse: ROGUE ANGEL 10/1 e.w Made a taking impression in only point start to date and came home very easily. Must have place claims here and is certainly an interesting horse to watch develop. Gigginstown have already picked this one up.

    At last, and we got 12s too, great stuff <cracker>

    Nice one Toppy. If Cameron Highland doesn't win the next at Redcar I'm giving up

    Haha I know Zen, she was very green but galloped on really nicely. Still though, nice performance to beat the boys.
