That'll Do just didn't have the pace to get to the winner...will be better over 3m or even 2m6f.

Maybe a Galway Plate outsider..Nicholls likes the race.

3.05 Navan

My Girl Anna 11/2

She looks an incredible price. She's a C+D winner who has never been beaten by more than 2L in 4 starts. 2 starts back she finished a 0.62L 3rd behind Maarek at the track with the winner subsequently winning a very hot race in Newmarket. On her last start she finished 1.25L beaten 3rd behind Gordon Lord Byron, who finished just in front of her at Navan. That winner has won again since in a conditions race where he was badly off at the race so My Girl Anna's last 2 efforts have been extremely good. She's only 2lb higher than her effort behind Maarek and off the same mark as her latest effort. She'll have to reverse form with Luisant, who finished 0.75L ahead of My Girl Anna on her last start, but that rival is 2lb worse off at the weights and the ground today will suit a bit better than the testing ground did for My Girl Anna. 11/2 represents a fantastic e/w price if you are that way inclined as I cant see her out of the first 3 but I'm quietly confident she'll land this.

Will do a RFC with Luisant as they look the likeliest first 2 home.

Cheers lads. A nice end to a frustrating week. Forecast paid 36.16 which is a bit bigger than I was expecting!
 
Is Joyce Maduaka a professional athlete? Who pays her salary? Why? She never wins a race. Ever. The British Championships do not count.
 
Talksport reporting Hazard's preferred destination is United....... until City double their original salary offer of course.

I want Cabaye at OT. He's a good player.

I'm gonna have a few quid on Bullock Harbour at 7/1 e.w. in the 3.55 at Limerick.

Good ground is the key to this fella and it looks like he's been prepared for a summer novice chasing campaign.No better trainer than Jessy Harrington at getting one of these ready and this 128 hurdler has a decent chance in what is a good little race.Only covering the e/w since it is a 16 runner novice chase and anything could happen.

I expect this to be well supported.

Well Jessie did win it with a 25/1 second string..<laugh>.

Bullock Harbour was well backed but ran with the choke out chasing a ridiculous pace.Not BC's finest ride.Might be worth another chance if ridden with more restraint.

Mark Bolger gave the winner a nice ride and Anshan Dream ran well before blowing up after his absence..should be a few winners to come out of this.
 
F&G BOOOOOOM early xmas

and Joseph O'Brien knockers just keep going - thats a treble today (fair enough one was 1-9)- and what was that ohhh 2 winners yesterday for Mr Haggas at big prices and one winning by a neck - top quality jockey for only 18. Makes me sick when people knock the lads ability just because of who his dad is.
 
didn't realise it was forbidden to criticise O'Brien junior. I'd rather back a horse with Spencer on, personally. Or Ryan Moore or Johnny Murtagh. Just my opinion, is all.
 
Thats fine. My opinion you are talking ****e though saying F&G got him out of trouble. He rode a blinder he knew he needed to be up there from the start. Was hands and heels in the finish because he was always holding. What did you want him to do ? smack him with the whip when it wasn't needed. Sound like another wanting him to fail because of who his old man is. Two smashing rides yesterday for Mr Haggas.

You have to give the young lad credit, for me Ryan Moore doesnt do enough, yesterday he had some shocking rides and sometimes doesnt get the horse in a position early enough or leaves tthem too much to do, add to that he rides out for some of the top trainers and you have a jockey who gets his wins by the quality of ride he gets rather than his ability to position a horse and get them home.
