NORSE LEGEND 6/1 Exeter 12:55 Won on this card over this trip last year with the claimer on board and runs here off 1lb lower having now aborted the larger obstacles. Obvious chance. Slightly less obvious. OUR ELSIE 14/1 Ayr 3:50 The owner breeder is a long standing patron of the yard and this ones dam has previously provided connections with a bumper winner. She herself was placed in bumper so there is a good few positives in the lineage. On the minus side, neither the dam nor the sibling won on debut and the yard isnt in what you would call a rich vein of form. Still I think she is worth an each way poke in a modest enough looking race.
De Name Evades Me , yes , it’s a tough race , but his and the stables form should win it 3/1 . In that modest bumper at ayr , She’s A Rocca for nicky richards must have a favs chance ? 2/1
funny that the whillans brothers, who train next door to each other have very different strike rates , alaistair does really well , while donald seems to be more alan berry .........both are pig farmers ......
I like John Constable today, but here’s a question for the forum. Has a horse ever got a more unrealistic chase mark on what they’ve shown over fences compared to hurdles? 143 after two unplaced runs compared with 132 over hurdles with 4 wins and 60k of winnings!!
Good card at Bangor today, quality rather than quantity. Navajo Pass interesting with an eye to the future.
The owners of Golden Sunrise ( Colin Tizzard ) have another in the race in the shape of Truckin Away ( Phillip Hobbs ) Which was pulled up last time out over 2m7f so today they step up in trip and the money has come.
Today's attempt at finding the right ones 14.00 Exeter Big Meadow 13.50 Bangor Commodore 14.55 Bangor Chti Balko 14.15 Ayr River Icon 15.20 Ayr Bafana Blue Enjoy today's slog, it's going to be hard going at Bangor
I was at Dungarvan p2p the day Timetoroe won, it was a close finish 2nd hasn't run since, 3rd hasn't come to much but 4th dotted up in a bumper in cork and 5th won a p2p then sold and has won twice over hurdles for Donald McCain. Timetoroe's second 3 weeks ago should leave her spot on for this today. Good enough form I would think to win this.
Unlucky to fall at the last but had been pushed since 3 out, looked like a place was on the cards at least.
Bryony Frost gets off one of her Dad's, which won last time out to ride Big Meadow, this was an indication for me that Big Meadow had the better chance Findusatgorcombe 28/1 winner - well done Jimmy Frost
afternoon,mates! exeter,4 10: not a very original choice,but,as things stand,it has to be QUEENS CAVE.she made a very encouraging seasonal debut at chepstow a few weeks ago,only going down to a useful rival in silver forever,who boosted the form recently with a win in a good race at newbury.so,with a question mark over the nicholls horse lisa de vassy,after an inauspicious debut last time out,this looks a nice opportunity for her to get off the mark over hurdles today.
Entered in the 1:15 @ Cheltenham this weekend... Connections might be hoping for a better run here than today... If standing his ground that is...
didn’t see today’s race but since the front two pulled 10 clear of the third , only a neck between them , sounds like a hard race , must be doubtful of turning out so quick , probably an insurance entry in case something went wrong today ?
