Punchestown 15,40 Private Ryan 9/2 PP, 4/1 others 16,15 Tactical Move 5/1 PP, betfair and sky 17,25 Lifetime Ambition 4/1 My dear old mate Caryto Des Brosses runs in the first race at Chelteham over inadequate trip, I have bet on him (9/4) for sentimental reasons, although the racing is very weak.
Coup De Pinceau @ 25/1, Cheltenham 7.00 ew 4 places. A previous winner of this slogathon and may just still be still going when the rest have had enough on the soft going. Sir Psycho @ 12/1, Punchy 4.15 ew 5 places. In decent nick in the UK without winning. Maybe today is the day.
I’m told Padjoes Legacy could win the 5.10 chel. He’s a cheeky monkey who takes his time to get going but will be doing his best work late on.Gina gets the leg up. Cheers.
I hope that after what happened today they will consider retiring Caryto (12 years old), something they should have done at least a year ago due to the multiple injuries the horse has had (stomach ulcers). A real pity because if it hadn't been for those ulcers the horse would have been one of the dominators of the Hunters Chase division for several years.
