What do they feed people in the poorhouses these days? I like soup.

Look at the lovely girls, aren’t they lovely

TwoRunnyEggs · May 4, 2011, 5:35pm

Haley O’Connor is worth the tv license.

The_Runt · May 4, 2011, 5:40pm

I’d say she is mad for it

The_Dunph · May 4, 2011, 5:41pm

She’s full of auld soft talk…

TwoRunnyEggs · May 4, 2011, 5:45pm

I was very impressed with Rebecca Curtis yesterday. Racing is getting very glamorous.

The_Runt · May 4, 2011, 5:46pm

Natal is some monkey :lol:

Philip Enright landed with snow on his cap!

Will take evens on quevega, prince of pirates looks fresh and likely to run well, other I really like is sweeps hill, has won twice at pun, fresh and if you ignore the last run when kielys horses were not going well 14/1 is value…tough looking race though but a few of them have been out a while now

The_Tipping_King · May 4, 2011, 8:47pm

A great day racing. David Hyland owes me a few more pound now! Don’t know what happened the first horse at Chester, something very clearly wrong with her but the other won with ease. Not a winner to be found on track at Punchestown but great entertainment all the same.

Hangblaas trainer mate gave her a few rattles apparently

fenwaypark · May 4, 2011, 8:54pm

Prince of pirates should take a world of beating based upon his bumper form (only horse to beat bobsworth) and his defeat of al ferof over sticks (fell two out). Kiely has had a terrible year but they had a winner today and sweeps hill will appreciate better going (if rain stays away). looking forward to seeig captain chris strut his stuff again.

The_Runt · May 4, 2011, 8:56pm

She has the same look about her as a bird I knew. Filth.

Mikael d’Haguenet 10/1 without Quevega is tempting me quite a bit

fenwaypark · May 4, 2011, 9:33pm

Id agree with you DB. based on his run first time out , he looked like he still retained plenty of his old ability. He was as slick a hurdler as you could wish to see and it’ll be interesting to see how he gets on tomorrow.

Mac · May 4, 2011, 10:43pm

Would you not think his confidence might be shot and he might need one run to get himself right again?

fenwaypark · May 4, 2011, 10:47pm

maybe, but jumping hurdles might give him a spark.

Mac · May 4, 2011, 10:51pm

I’d hope it would but falling multiple times in a row can really mess up a horses mind. Can’t figure out Voleur la Vedettes price at all. She’s never tackled further than two and a half but the way Murphys horses are going you’d never know what could happen (although I said the exact same thing about Quevega being too short last year having never run over 3m!!)

HangBlaa · May 5, 2011, 10:53am

Will Quevega go evens?

Captain Chris prob will ok. Are both good things.
