Hi Jay Re Leeview Dave in the sprint, he is without doudt the fastest dog in the race but he has a very poor draw in trap one as the sprint box trap one is probably the worst place you want to be for a sprint in Cork. Dogs very rarely ping it from there.

OK causeway I actually felt that he is the most vulnerable of the shorties.
I think T6 in the sprint puts you out on top of the hair rail and is the worst trap in Curaheen sprints, if Leeview pings from T1 he wins............. |

Took the 4s Rioga, it's a more than fair price.
Hopefully Skip can find a smash break from Allen Master tonight, he needs it but the dog is capable of doing it. |

Hi Jay, Some interesting statistics in 2012 from 146 races the strike rate from the sprint boxes is
1)7% 2) 18% 3) 16% 4) 27% 5) 16% 6) 16% Trap one is very very hard to win from as they say statistics don't lie. |

pf, what chance would you give Marie Gilberts other dog in R8 I think against Jimmy Barry'y Droopy's Carl ?
Stats dont lie, causeway they just fade away like good hurlers  |

By:
Rubbish draw, doesn't lead doesn't win, struggle to see it leading unless it smashes.

Solo on the inner, everythin went middle, Rioga was close with him to the bend but checked on the run up, trouble behind he pulled 4 clear off the 1st and won by a distance

Got a rare result i wanted in 2012. Knockglass Billy was obviously fast and showed what he could do in the Irish Sprint and Derby final night. Impressive in the first round and just because he didnt go as fast then, should never have been a 12/1 chance when i backed him towards the end. Hope he's pencilled in for Night of Stars

Well done woodie, and never in doubt.Knockglass broke very well, seemed to move outwards,which caused some scrimmaging for the middle runners, and he was electric to the bend.Slight bother on the bend behind him and as the commentator 'Tim' said 'home for all money'.Well done to owner and trainer,and he was a really well backed winner.
Bookies won well I'd say on the night,as there were some upsets.The fav in the sprint was done no favours by the camera man (can be seen clearly on video), shoving his lens in front of the traps. Money talks was imho dis-appointing, again and has plenty to prove now. Droopys Carl looks over-rated, and in any event is still very novicey. Trainers Linehan and Kiely had winners, and I got out on the last Linehan winner, but the 2/1 sp was a big return as early doors he was much shorter, I got 6/4. but was glad to draw. Huge crowd and a lovely evening added to the enjoyment. |

I had a feeling about Money Talks and gave Tock a chance but forgot to mention it in my comment. Glad you enjoyed the occasion Jay

You're being very harsh about Droopys Carl, he's only had 5 races and has only just turned 2. Give him some time and see how he turns out, in any case i haven't heard much hype about him anyway.

By:
Yes maybe I am being harsh pf, but he he was the subject of some real big bets, and let his connections down.Marie Gilberts dog didn't hang about and was impressive, he looked the danger to the Fav.

Unlucky Irish, Rioga couldnt quite get round and needed to be inside Billy, who scooted clear
