    Irish racing is a ****ing disgrace! MIN backed like it cannot lose and its stable mate runs a complete non trier. Absolute joke!

    Never paid too much attention to the Irish scene min looked good on paper though .
    But all sport has dodgy bar stewards in it and it' a shame

    At least that might be the end of the "Yorkhill could win anything from the Gold Cup to the Greyhound Derby" nonsense

    Perhaps Yorkhill has some type of injury? Too bad to be true. Fancied Min but couldn’t bring myself to pull the trigger <doh>

    Yorkhill got to go hurdling, does not like fences but as above something amiss.

    I think Petit Mouchoir will give Footpad plenty to think about here but you would hope Footpad can put in a superstar peformance - racing needs these great horses

    I think Gordon Elliot's time has come. Backed a couple of outsiders kick jazz and tycoon prince. I like pearl royale at wetherby and Golan fortune at sandown
    Cheers.

    Good 10 mins for Munir. The Sandown finish was a cracker.

    A very eye catching performance from the Henderson novice.

    The Nicholls horse was giving 3lb away though for a neck beating though. Both good novices

    Yes, but the Henderson horse had been upped a stone for his previous win and he's only.a baby.
