Taylor Sky was 9/2 for the Gold Cup. Unsuccessful, has cost me an absolute fortune and must be a much larger price here considering the quality of opposition. Short fav when in trouble behind Mags Gamble in aforementioned Gold Cup but will still surely be well to the fore in antepost betting.

Bubbly Phoenix is unraced since his sparkling 28.22s romp over 480m Derby final night. Think he's had a setback as muted going for Irish Derby which never materialised.

Loughteen Blanco caught close home by Westmead Maldini over 515m Hove in the Sussex Cup but should be more at home over this 462m trip.

Boher Paddy retains more speed than most people recognise and could be a force in trying for his first Category One success. Much will depend on his starting against some of these speedy types though.

Jaytee Pedro beat a top quality field including Phoenix, Mill Bling Bling, Blue Artisan and Hather George in the 2nd round of the Derby but then in trouble and went downhill, been off.

Think much will depend on how dogs do in trials. Will be interesting to see those results and how the outright market takes shape

Taylors Sky is brilliant on his day and i've always held Boher Paddy in the highest regard but the pair have cost me a fortune and feel it's time to jump ship, enter Loughteen Blanco.

He was friendless on his English debut when well beaten behind Boher Paddy and Razldazl Jayfkay back in February but has acclimatised well since and went very close to lifting the Sussex Cup over Hove's demanding 515m. This 462m could be right up his street and he looks a more reliable starter than Sky and Paddy, which is needed round this speedy circuit. Had a little go at 7/1 anyway.

Got my eye on 33/1 and 50/1 each-way shots. Will post later

Report woodmanchester September 2, 2012 6:20 PM BST
Unless you mean You Mind Me Pockets?

Anyway, as promised here's a 50/1 shot with a squeak: Hather George.

Although not one of Lister's better-known dogs, not getting the praise he deserves recently. Led and made Boher Paddy work overtime to three-quarters in a heat of the Steel City Cup, then finished a fine second to the smart Fire Height Spec, who i'm sure Draper doesnt rate too far behind Ballymac Eske and Farloe Warhawk. This 462m could be ideal.

a number the connections think he's much better from Trap 6.

did get to Derby semi and did stonking run at Wdon to win Plate.

perhaps he was not right at Tralee, given comments on injury at that time.

I agree that you'd think he'd be better on big less tight running tracck, but plenty of similar type dogs like Westmead Maldini, also run tights like Romford.

Happy with 7/1 Blanco and little add 33/1 Jaytee Pedro through too but they clash. Hather George got no kind of run, out but can do better.

Did anyone expect Murlens Crash to turn right from trap 3? Showed great pace afterwards but ultimately out.

Boher Paddy disappointing, let me down for an acca.

Must still respect Taylors Sky and Bubbly Phoenix.

Belvedere Emma must be rated one of the top bitches in training now?

Do you own Emma Woodman Grin? I did not see race last night, but she's only run 2 tight tracks in UK, and only handful of races, and other than 22 Aug GD rated 120 race not really spectacular, or in Ireland (in v few races) either? Might be wrong but reckon she's got a fair bit to go to be spoken of in Pearl or Perky category?

Looking at the Heat
penny pong ain't it got the best draw ever!

Trap 2 moved off big time
Trap 3 paddy wants rails by the time he gets into top speed he be up sides two when it moves surly.
Trap 4 wide as like with Early
Trap 5 got early will cut the bend
Trap 6 wide

Pong ain't good anaf in a clean race with any of them but can't see it being clean
think I'm going to play ew at a price can't see how red don't lead!
Report woodmanchester September 10, 2012 3:04 AM BST
I wouldnt be so sure Fatty. Think Romeo could be alongide Pong early and Phoenix may squeeze round in front at the bend. After below par in first round, Boher Paddy is likely to be his second biggest price ever in over 40 races but needs to polish up starting and improve, quite capable of it though.

Although Taylors Sky is hard to get away from, might not be as easy as expected. Droopys Reason has loads of early gears and Belvedere Emma showed guts and battling qualities in the first round.

Hoping Blanco should soon settle in the issue in his heat, and he should. Pedro has been smart when breaking in the past and i'm hoping they both qualify. Jordans Chris and Lenson Mac are useful in their own right.

Millwards Matt produced much bigger run than anticipated in the opening round but will he repeat? You Mind Me is fast early and likely to be prominent throughout. Lenson Peter respected

Whats the draw please fellas?

My mate texted me the early ante-post betting. He said, blah, blah, blah and 14/1 bar. I said, "what?". "Phoenix a non-runner?". I expected him to me near top of market with Sky and Blanco but he had been disappointing in Ireland and sorry i didnt step in. Next i'd looked only 10/1. Fine win last night, but Paddy still running flat.

Scratching my head a bit about Sky. He broke and thought he led but the splits show Ballycowen was in front crossing winning line first time. I saw the field bunch at the bend and was watching Belvedere Emma ko-ing Droopys Reason, so when i looked back up was surprised to see Ballycowen two lengths in front of Sky entering the back straight. I would have expected Sky to emerge on top with advantage of rails. Still, Sky brave and the time was there in the end.

Count myself extremely luckily to still be in the competition with Blanco. He was having forty winks at the start and left. Only coz the T1 dog went wrong and it wasnt a particularly fast race he qualified, also aided by Jordans Chris easing three-quarters

Didnt go so, obviously, dont know precisely what happened but reading the report and picking the bare bones out of the result, Phoenix was very impressive. Sky seemed unlucky second but through. Think Phoenix will be short for the final, then Sky. Reckon big prices the rest. Draw:

1 Sky
2 Midas
3 Fifis
4 Dusty
5 Phoenix
6 Matt

Blanco apparently wasnt his best away, found trouble but no more to give and failed by a head to reach the final. Paddy disappointing and not his track, out of sorts anyway?

You Mind Me had previously been overhauled for a qualifying place when running out of puff in the first semi.

As impressive as he was maybe not quite as short as that. Hasnt got his stripes, that honour goes to up-and-coming Matt and only a fool would disregard Sky, seeing red, in Lister's East Anglian Derby, well made it his own anyway.

The compilers will have the benefit of seeing the races, so dunno really. Looking at the splits, Phoenix is marginally quickest, shouldn't be too much between the leading three. Although Sky half a second to find with Phoenix on end times, if he goes round in front, race on
