The daughter and her fella are going to Haydock (if it’s still on) on Saturday. Any tips, info or fancies greatly received. Thanks in advance. Good luck all
 
1:55 Leop - MOSSBACK 16/1

Big ask for him to step up in grade and trip to beat Monalee but the form of his chase debut win is solid - today’s impressive winner Snow Falcon beaten fair and square. Also had future winner Avenir D’Une Vie 50+ lengths behind. Definitely worth an eway poke in this 9 runner race.

3:05 Leop - LESLEY DAWN 20/1

I thought she could be a star when hacking up back in May but has been slightly disappointing in 3 runs this term. Leap of faith required but I’m hoping the step up in trip (stamina in pedigree) unlocks some of that early potential in her first handicap.

Both available with PP at those prices - eway singles and small eway double <cheers>
 
I'd be fearing the bottom one in that Sam Red race tomorrow chaps. Allbarnone. James Bowen's only ride of the day and takes 5lb off the bottom weight. Not a prolific winner but has some decent hurdles form. Opened at 16s and in to 11/2 so would appear connections are hoping for a good go tomorrow. It could also be that the odds compilers just made a massive balls up with their opening show.
 
Short price double at Leopardstown
13.55 Monalee 4/5
15.35 Minella Encore 6/4
Looks like decent prices for 2 exciting horses
 
SOME AMBITION 50/1 Doncaster 2:05
I know its a decent race but that is a huge price for this horse with the yard in very fair nick.

Euxton Lane going again in that race Stick .................but after such a promising bumper run he was pretty rank on hurdles debut so I guess they are trying to work a nice handicap mark ..................
 
3 40 Doncaster - Gambei 14/1 , Easterby has had 4 winners from his last 6 runners over jumps and the two that lost were 25/1 and 66/1
