    1.40 Naas MONKSLAND 7/1 (BOG)

    This is not a race I would be smashing in to the selection at 7/1 as I don’t know how good the favourite Dedigout is going to be. But as I don’t rate the horses he has beaten so far in his two hurdles victories and I certainly couldn’t be backing him at 10/11. He got the better of Mart Lane last time out who is a 12/1 shot today and there is no obvious reason for a reversal in form there. I think the value may well be with Monksland who is unbeaten under rules following an impressive bumper performance at Down Royal he was a good winner on his hurdling debut at Navan. He jumped well enough that day but there is certainly scope for improvement. He looked as if he would relish this step up in distance when taking a while to get on top last time out and considering he handles the ground and represents top connections he looks a bit overpriced at around the 7/1 mark.


    2.40 Naas LA SARRAZINE 7/1 (BOG)


    I am going to take a chance on La Sarrazine here on here handicap debut over fences. This 7yo mare was once a 92 rated flat performer at best for James Fanshawe and also achieved a highest overall rating of 140 over hurdles with the same trainer. She is now in training with Niall Madden and has had four starts over fences for her current trainer. It would be fair to say she hasn’t looked a natural over the larger obstacles so far but she runs in a handicap over fences for the first time today and could be absolutely thrown in off a mark of just 96. She has been the subject of early support this morning (14/1 in to 7/1) and for me is worth a small bet as she is capable of making a mockery out of her mark

    Not big not clever..

    but had decent singles, doubles, trebles on

    Sportsmaster (Just won)
    Flemenstar
    Dedigout

    All was just below evens.. at Nass cant see any of them being beaten.

    Whilst at hereford Tenspinhits & Acapulco Bay (1st two races) should perform better than they've shown before so done e/w single & double

    Hi Cats - best of luck <ok>

    I think the Mullins horse against Flemenstar is a serious prospect and have backed Monksland against Dedigout

    getting sick of the NH tbh - bring on Chelts then the flat ;)

    Welbeck has just done a BA.

    Cyc.. In regards to scholes our Centre Mid options are lacking at present but it does some what seem a bit of desperation would rather we sign a creative CM.
    Also Cyc wakefield have signed Paul Aiton from the sharks PNG captain too seems a good capture...

    Tensphinits in 1:00 @ Hereford came 4th @ 66's <grr>

    Come on DeDigout

    RV... Hows life going mate?
    Yeh me too.. Chelts then flat season.
    Although I am off to Ascot in 2 weeks for Victor Chandler Chase who do you think I might see? Sizing? Captain Chris??
