So who do we fancy in the Ulster Says No National tomorrow?!
An ew speculation on Poormans Hill @ 22/1 first 4 places for me. The negatives are that it's his first run of the season and the claimer's win record hardly breeds too much confidence. However my understanding of the track is that it's unique and a bit of a rollercoaster ride. So previous course form is handy and PH is 3 from 3 at the track. He also won this in 2018.

After today, I haven't a clue. It's All (bloody) Guesswork

I had the winner in the first today so I'll just go for the first tomorrow when it's All About Joe; Haven't got time to think about the forecast because I'm So Busy

Morning

The Hunter Chase [4.10] looks a good race with the top 3 in the betting all looking solid

But will go for a bigger priced one each way @ 8-1 [Bet 365]

SEVERUS ALEXANDER 6/1 Downpatrick 2;40
This horse seems to be flourishing after a recent move from O'Brien to Cromwell and can enhance the latters recent excellent run of form.

I like General Principle in the big race but the betting vibes are not good and when one trainer has so many entrants you can almost certainly put a line through their drifters, can you not?
 
Out Sam ran a good race at Cheltenham in the x-country,, kept out the back for the
majority and making a couple of mistakes on the way round.

only being beaten by easesland and Tiger Roll.

I have gone with Out Sam 12/1 e.w 4 places. The cod father on board. He ran well in this race previously and as long as Cheltenham hasn't left it's mark too much could run well today..Downpatrick is quite a unique track and maybe the banks/ cheese wedges of Cheltenham have provided some decent match practice.

Good luck all. :emoticon-0167-beer:
 
Afternoon,fellas! Downpatrick 1 40: Not the Strongest of races to Kick Things Off Today,but One,that could See ALL ABOUT JOE Feature Here.he was Second to a useful Rival last Time out,and if able to Build on it Today,has a Major shout!

I think I'll give up with Irish racing <doh>
 
In my View,the Red Menace can go well.especially his win Two Starts back looks much better Now.
 
If Jimmil turns up in the same form that saw him easily beat the most progressive horse in Ireland in last week in Treacysenniscorthy, then he should canter around this field even with the 14lb hike from that. That said, it's never as straight forward and on the roller coaster at Downpatrick, anything can often happen.

I've stuck with Jimmil at 5/1 myself as a case can be made for multiple horses but his recent from is a cut above the rests. Can he back it up is another thing...
