    My Nap,the best mare in Ireland <laugh>,obliges at 6/4 but managed to get 2's last night...ignored the 5/2 thinking it would drift...loose but happy enough.

    Might have a look at the dreaded 3.50 now for a bit of fun.

    Well done Eddie who also stuck Knockfierna up.

    You thought Knockfierna would drift <yikes>

    I got 5/2 about the best chase mare in ireland, best bet since 7/2 Musir <ok>

    Yous can laugh it up, but over fences Knockfierna is different class from any mare in Ireland.

    Well done Wooley et al on Ranjaan...nice price after the drift.

    Hard to equate the form the form to the 4-y-o division but decent effort.

    Is It possible for a jockey to get a ban nowadays for not using the whip? just watched Dara salam 3.30 Lingfield and jockey came from a different county and just needed a couple of whacks after the last to ask him to pick up and yet she just rode like it was a piece of work all the way to the line. The trainer took that horse over 600 miles for that and will be gutted.

    Right I'm sneaking out the office to watch this 3.50, quite lumpy on Chariot Charger each way.
    I'll be back in about 15 with a hard luck story......

    Eddie...she's very good and I have been following her for quite a while...super effort to give that field 6lbs.

    I think she'll be even better on decent ground.

    Starting to wonder why I've become like a magnet to horses that travel all the way round, then when the pace is turned up my jockey doesn't ask a question.
    Chariot backed from 15/2 into 9/2, jumped brilliant, just never asked to quicken by Doyle.
    Strange.....

    Interesting to see The Tother One running in the Hunter Chase at Thurles.
