Massive crowd for preview in my home town of lucan.great panel including ruby, normally alot of bolix spoken at these events but looking forward to it nonetheless
One of my strongest fancies of the week is in this but you will have to wait till the preview is published by Bob to find out what it is.
There are very bullish words amongst the county set for SEGO SUCCESS in next Tuesday’s NH Chase and the booking of the forum’s favourite Corinthian can only be viewed as a huge, and I do mean huge, positive. Have today taken the 6/1 about him NRNB with Bet365. Furthermore, there is quite a chance that the current favourite for the race, Don Poli, will sidestep the heat and instead go for the RSA. But whatever happens re that one I think Sego Success will be very hard to beat as he is a true stayer and is ultra progressive.
Once Don Poli is taken out watch the market move for Vroum Vroum Mag. Will have Paddy Mullins on board and he certainly knows how to win this race. Is Mullins sole runner and receives Mares Allowance. Quite taken by this horse, only issue is same for almost every horse in this field - will it stay?
"Floridaspearl said ... did I dream this or did willie Mullins say in the interview on ch 4 on Saturday that Faugheen had a stress fracture in December? Reebok said He did. Said they gave him a rest before running him again, and now he seems ok. Fair be it for me to query a legendary trainer, but it sounded a bit amateurish to me" They just replayed that on The Morning Line, and he was talking about Annie Power - apologies.
Just seen Corals offering 5/1 for Ruby Walsh to win any race at the festival - new customers only, max stake 5 quid
Mullins also has Perfect Gentleman in the race which Patrick will be on as he couldn't do the weight for Mag even if he wanted to ride!
Some of these supposed 'offers' are pants oddy although I did back one today with boyle sports which I thought was decent:donn cossack to place in ryanair & paint the clouds to place in the foxhunter at 3/1
Paddy Power have been sending me "offers" all week in the form of doubles which if you'd double them normally they'd be the same price as the "offer"!! No thank you paddy!!
Fookin ell Rock on Ruby out. That's the the hat trick. 3 antepost bets a not and single runner for me money. What an utter load of bollox. Never again.
