The Sport of Kings & Equine Matters 🐐

[quote=“The Dunph”]It was said on Today FM in the sports part of their news coverage.

I hope it’s all innocnet enough, he seems an absolute machine of a horse. His performances at both Cheltenham and Punchestown were astonishing. [/QUOTE]

That’s what would worry me.

Pure speculation, but he’s supposed to be a fractious enough animal, I wonder was it ‘steady neddy’ or a coolant like that he failed. We’ll just have to wait and see.

Could have been dodgy feed even.

Think I’m going to hit greenmount this evening. The card is poor but at least it’s all NH.

A couple for tonight

Raise your Heart 8.30 in Leopardstown - 10/11
Interakt 7.00 Folkestone - 9/4

Your man Wayne Bailey who writes for the indo, has set up his own website and has had a penomenal strike rate since he launched it. I’ve made a few quid off it. He has no tip for today but it is well worth keeping an eye on:

good going tonight. 3 wins out of 5 bets.
Went big into the 2nd in the bumper, had her backed this morning e/w and again tonight without the top 2. Thought I was on for a mega pay day for a while. :guns:

Good stuff runt. Had a small word for that bumper horse myself, Colville is a good man to get a horse right.

My one little filly is Gawlway bound, and we are hopeful. Will let ye know on Monday if she is worth a few bob.

Was listening to the Arkle song this morning on the ipod, only heard it for the first time last week, great little tune. I would like to get it imposed on over this you tube video:

Still get the goosebumps when O’Sullevan says “This is it” just before Arkle kicks on.

I’m having a great day on you tube :mad:
Crisp was an australian horse right? Would there have been many chasers from Oz to compete in Ireland and England?

Crisp was Australian yeah. He’d won the Two Mile Champion Chase that year by 20 lengths I think. If only that prick Pitman had known where the elbow was he’d have won. Clown.

I’m going to throw a few bob on his tips for today. that should bring down his strike rate a bit. :mad:

I did a 10 e/w accum there on all 6 selections for the craic.

Returns 4125!

And it’s gone at the first race :mad:

I warned you I was backing them. I did a double with the 2nd fella so he’s safe to win now and will no doubt do so at a canter

:thumbsup:

Good call Julio :mad:

Anyone fancy anything in the king george?

Did you see the last race at Newmarket?

Had the fav backed and he looked to be coasting until the jockey stopped riding on him in the last 100 yards and he was beat by a lenght. Looked like he managed to get his whip tangled up in the reins.
