Interesting runner tomorrow at Bangor - DELIRANT not been seen since winning at Grade1 bumper in France beating Draconien who subsequently won at the Punchestown festival. Currently round 5/2 , had a wind op and will be interesting should the money come for him. But what also struck me was that he is a JP horse trained by David Pipe too!
 
Twojayslad 4 00Bangor , in form ian williams has booked w kennedy , they used to team up a lot but since he's mostly used by mccain , doesn't occur much , however , i'm sure they mean business tommorow , like the last few winners , money has come the night before , currently 6/1

Another smart horse for Pipe to ruin....

Tuned in yesterday to check out a Dr Newland newcomer ( Inessa, runner up) and in doing so inadvertently upset Swanny ( apologies ).
Dr Newland has another newbie out today at Bangor - Henry Smith, 2.30 - so I'll be following that with interest, too.
The 3.30 at Bangor looks a decent one and I wouldn't be surprised to see Zenafire, give a good account.
Over at Fontwell, team FOB have Kiruna Peak in the 2.15, which I also like.

Could do with a win .... <doh>

Good luck to all taking part.
 
After 2 pretty mystifying runs for Gary Moore over hurdles (shot off like a scalded cat before weakening), Diakali has a go at novice chasing today at Fontwell. Odds of 4/6 make absolutely no appeal and I wouldn't be surprised to see Our Three Sons get the better of him today.
 
That's OK, SimonJ, as usual got the wrong end of the stick but that's nothing unusual for me. As you can see, the last part of my post would explain that I finally understood what you were getting at. However, I'm sure you will appreciate how disappointing it is when one's choice doesn't even give you a run because the hoss feels like being silly! Sorry! Again, glad no one was hurt in the incident, could have been nasty.
 
Wouldn't put money on it but at 5/1 Djarkevi in the 3.30 Bangor looks a safe(ish) ew bet

Oooooh the lucky bugger just sneaked it by 29 lengths <laugh>

Where the hell are they planning to go with this fella? Galway Plate or what?

Massive dodgepot and will never be a real betting proposition or a horse that wins in decent company again. Moved to Gary Moore to freshen him up and will be picking up egg and spoon races this season. Shame as has stacks of ability but an equal amount of temperament.

I'm just bamboozled as to why he has started him novice chasing at the beginning of June? You'd have to think him capable of winning a couple of decent chases this winter given what he did over hurdles so why start him now? Very strange indeed.
 
hi fellas!hope,youre well.

southwell, 6 05

well,a rather low key start to proceedings,but SIZING SCORPION could easily be good enough at this low level,despite his long absence,but his top yard knows the time of day,so big shout,if all is well today.
