Sunday 26th August Daily Thread

Each Way Lucky 15 for me today
Good 2.10 - Shamrocked 14/1
Good 3.20 - I Love Me 25/1
Bev 4.40 - Mad for Fun 16/1
Good 5.00 - Galatian 14/1

My main pick of the day is Flying the Flag at the Curragh 5/1

 

The Cheka must have a very good chance at goodwood, especially if he can repeat the last two runs and 9/4 is a very fair price!

Pique Sous is due to make its hurdles debut today at cork, admittedly 1/3 isn't a good price but I'll be watching with interest nonetheless!

Also think Poetic Lord will be very hard to beat under Richard Hughes in the last at goodwood!

Have a good day everyone!

 

Just the 1 for me today

Coax 4.05 Bev, only ride for the inform Danny Tudhope (leading rider at Yorkshire tracks). And yes I was on the 'ingleby' double at Redcar last night at 16s and 8s!!!!

Also think Man City are a steal at 7/5 at Anfield

 

Rule 4s are going to be hideous today, wish i hadn't bothered now

 

Pique Sous turned over.

 

Afternoon guys.

Back from Magaluf a few hours ago (oh the shame ).


One tale I wanted to share with you. On Wednesday afternoon I was sat in Mulligans bar with my friends in the Magaluf strip- they put the racing at York on () and Frankel got a standing round of applause from everyone watching the televisions. What an utter superstar. Racing in Magaluf- bizarre?!

On the bridle wasn't he?! Jesus.

Hope you are all well anyway- I need a few days recovery

 

Hello lads.

Nothing for me again today.

Stoke "fans" booing Ramsey when he came on after getting his leg broken there a couple of seasons ago.

Poor form.

 

It is no surprise is it- they continue to outdo themselves, the numpties.

 

I can't have them Toppy.

Anti Football imo.

 

Curragh 3.45 First Cornerstone 4/1

 

Backed Zumbi lto and was given an awful ride.

Decided against backing him today when I saw the same jockey booked.Wise move and another Dobbs masterclass.

He had the chance to come on the outside with a clear run two out but decided to head inside into the pack.Shocking decision.

Definitely a decent race in Zumbi though and he is still improving.

 

Well done Boris.

Nice colt that...God knows how Birdbrain was joint fav.

 

Im absolutely amazed, a 2yo group race was actually won by the horse with the best form, a rare sight this season, if Obrien trained it it would have been 5/4 fav on the form of that win in a listed race last time. Nice to see Andy Oliver have a nice 2yo on his hands, he does well with little ammunition.

 

Maybe a lot of bird brains lumped on.

 

Didn't hear about that Oddy but nothing surprises me anymore...just continues to disappoint.
