    The last is a NO BET race except I need to stake a pound to watch it.

    Off that performance she has no right to be in the World hurdle to be fair. She'd not beat RDS, Bog Warrior and Solwhit et al being ridden like that.

    It just seems a damn shame that we dont get to see her very much at all... She is a class apart from the rest of the mares so i do hope that we get to see her again... Though i wont be going to Punchestown to watch her, im sure ATR will show it...<ok>

    Turning into a Mullins benefit festival. Who the hell's going to take on the mighty Pont tomorrow??? I've backed him there 6-4 as that'll only go shorter...

    We'll see Red. He needs to win. I've put my balls on the line so it will definitely hurt if he loses.

    Pont Alexandre winning gives me a similar result so tomorrow really is a do or die day.

    Very irritated Rule The World runs against him. That horse reminds me of First Lieutenant.

    I'm on at 8's, 6's, 5's, 4's and 9/4 Beefy. Rule the World is the biggest danger for me. The New One is a brilliant young horse but the yard are under a cloud. I actually think 6/4 is too short though and i'd rather back Rule The World each way at that price.

    Not so sure MB...still has loads to find on the form book and I'm not convinced she wants a true run 3m.

    I've backed Mullins to be top trainer at 13/8 - only for £50 but I thought pre festival it was a good way of having interest in a lot of races without gambling too much.

    Bloody hell Dex. We had a bitch fest on Sunday but we agree on that. On that performance she wouldn't beat the World field. On everything else she's shown i'd back her to win though.

    Quevega has always had doubts for me if she was pitched in against the boys, BUT she came from a long, long way back today so I think she would hold her own, without necessarily winning.

    it's more than 5 bets Red. I did the same with Boston Bob last year lads so i'd probably avoid him if i was you.

    The Druids Nephew nowhere but ran a great race.

    Sam Cohen rode a blinder there. Bloody well done that man. And if you backed him very well done also.
