afternoon all,
this was from last night so the odds might not be up to date. i see some of you have also picked stow, one of mine below. i can't read the rest of the thread yet in case some results are out and i haven't seen the race!
2:05 NBY
dynaste 1/2 is the obvious favourite having beaten fingal bay and alsio been in top company. question is how testing is the ground really after today. i've gone for
court in motion 9/2 who wins and places on hvy/sft over longer distances, 2nd in the betting.
2:40 NBY
in search of a consistent placing 3 miler used to soft/hvy ground the first one was stow 12/1 and shortening. plus duke of monmouth, also 12/1 shortening, who won november 7th over 25 sft beating iron chancellor. i passed over ballybough pat for distance reasons. lundy sky 16/1 drifting was a possibility, 2nd to star du granits recently over 24 sft. but i've gone for
stow purely for its consistency over 24f in softer ground which it would seem to slightly prefer, although sometimes misses the placings.
2:45 THU hvy
popmurphy 15/2 and shortening, places (just) over 2m hvy/sft, ridden my andrew macnamara. plus
shesonlyahorse (the name always makes me more fond of her) has better credentials on this ground than popmurphy, and is ridden by andrew lynch. those are my picks, although dont tell pa 3/1 has won on this ground three times recently and beaten shesonlyahorse but the odds are too short for ew, and shortening.
g'luck all today

... Saving myself for tonight taking my better half out for a meal tonight...
