14:30 - Bold Revenge
We have a half-sister of his at home (Annagh Lodge) and we bought him at the Cheltenham Sales at the end of May because he had some promising point to point form to his name and looked a proper horse.
We're very happy with him, he works and jumps well. We're starting him off over hurdles but he's got plenty of speed and he could be up to winning a bumper later on. He'll come on for this run but we're looking for a good show which will help us decide where to go with him.
15:05 - Cause Of Causes
He's the pick of our two runners in this race. In fact, he's the pick of our runners at the track this afternoon. The ground went totally against him and he didn't stay the trip when tailed off at Perth on his last outing but we've given him time since then and he's in good nick right now.
He's dropping back to two miles and two furlongs this afternoon and that, plus the ground, which they're giving as good to yielding, should be in his favour. He has form at the track and we're expecting him to run well for Paul Carberry today. All being well, this should put him on spot on for the Galway Festival.
15:05 - Court Lexi
She was a winner at Limerick back in May but was a bit disappointing at Kilbeggan a couple of weekshttp://community.betfair.com/gordonelliott/admin/blog_post.one# later so we've given her a little time off. She ran here three times last year, finishing second twice and winning once so she clearly has a liking for the track. She seems to be in good form and we'd be delighted if she could sneak into the frame.
15:40 - Tom's Last Euro
He was making his debut for us the last day but we were a bit disappointed with the run. That was over two-and-a-half miles and hopefully the drop back a couple of furlongs and the better ground might help. He is what he is, but he works quite well at home and this doesn't look the strongest of races. We're hoping for something better this time.
She won a bumper at Ballinrobe around this time last year but she has been a bit disappointing over hurdles so far this term. However, she should appreciate the better ground today. She stays a bit further than this (2m2f) and so she should have each-way claims.
16:45 - Cosmic Wonder
His last two runs have come at this track and he's been placed each time but they were both in bumpers and this is his first start over hurdles. The only concern for him is that he can be a bit keen in his races so Davy (Condon) will drop him in and hope to get him settled early. If he can manage to do that, he should stay today's trip (2m7f) and he's capable of running into a place.
