Vanillier 5/1 - Limerick 12.25. Will need to further improve to land this but his recent maiden win looked good, the ground is fine and that recent win had a nice type from Mullins yard called Stattler in 3rd, with collateral from holding up, it's likely to see him go well at this level against these relatively mediocre Grade 2 runners.

Bacardys 18/1 e/w - Leopardstown 1.15. Has been sent off favourite or short price for this heat a couple of times in recent years without any luck. He did place 3rd in the stayers at Cheltenham and his most recent run was encouraging, staying on behind Honeysuckle, Ronald Pump and Beacon Edge. Willie Mullins seems to be in great form as usual, with an outsider winning St. Stephen's Day and I am expecting Bacardys to run close today if in the same vein of form as lto.

All the best.

Fury road
Presenting Percy

cracking races both of them. Would love to have seen Monalee entered, I think he would have won the KG if allowed to travel.
 
I don't normally watch much Irish racing but the card at Leopardstown today looks to have two of the best races over the Christmas period and the action is all live on ITV.

In the Christmas Hurdle THE STORYTELLER has similar form with Sire de Berlais and is the much better value.
I think FURY ROAD could well be better than both though.

The Savills chase is one of those races that you can make a case for half a dozen.
MINELLA INDO is a worthy favourite, but at the prices I think a little each way on KEMBOY and SAMCRO would be good bets.

The 1.50 looks a bit of a lottery. Will probably just have an each way bet on RAPID RESPONSE.
THE BIG BREAKAWAY wins the 3.00

Over at Catterick it would be good to see another win for Bryony Frost in the 1.30
 
Hi all...

Two bets today:

Catterick 1.30pm Miss Heritage 9/4 win. Frosts only ride of the day although Cobden also goes to Catterick for just one ride. I prefer Frost's mount as she just appears more solid..

Catterick 2.00pm Cup of Coffee 10/1 each way 4 places. Yard feel she has an each way chance.

Good luck all!:emoticon-0148-yes:
 
A treble already for Willie Mullins across the cards today including 16/1 shot Dandy Mag. Some form the man is in and Bacardys will surely go well here as STH says above.
 
Mind you'd be sick if you'd backed Willie's odds-on shot Reality Cheque in the bumper at Leopardstown yesterday. Patrick eased him into the lead with a furlong to go and he took a false step and slipped up. The best laid plans as they say .......................

Vanillier ran a cracker, losing out 0.75 if a length, was closing all the way but ran out of yardage and the fave obliged.

Bacardys pulled up, and last time out handicap winner Flooring Porter floored them all again after a hugely impressive handicap win the last time.

Going to try one more today, Moyhenna 16/1 2.45 Limerick. She will appreciate the slog and going around here, I'd be expecting her to run close today with all looking like suiting.
 
Some ride on the winner but I thought Melon was going to walk it - reminiscent of Flemenstar all those years ago coming off the bend. Did the jumping cost him or did he just run out of stamina?
