    Great recovery by Francis Hayes to stay on Dan Breen. Wouldn't have beaten the winner though. I have a second! Shame I backed for the win <doh>

    Talkin Thomas ran a race full of promise on ground that didn't look to suit him. Travelled into the race quite stylishly but don't think he was able to quicken on the ground. Definitely worth following

    Damn - Saint Roque a non-runner :(
    Have to be Inish Island then!
    Gutsy run by Master Overseer, glad to see Crash walking back - looked ominous for a while.

    I backed Bostons Angel last time out when he was just touched off by Arabella Boy and, even though he is 5lbs worse with that one today, I think he is starting to get back to something like his best and I think he can take this today off 145.

    Booom - about time I managed to get a winner! Good win by Pete - wonder if Uncle Junior would have challenged if he'd stood up?

    A little cheesed off by the ride on Maljimar.


    All he had to do was actually put him into the race for the last half mile and he was going to go very close.

    Cross Kennon must have a massive chance in the next at Cheltenham ..................... all depends on how good this Mullins animal might be, although his form with Dessie Hughes wasn't upto that much. I think Cross Kennon e/w is the bet, let's see if I can get 10/1
