Looking forward to the betting - Would fancy Hot Pursuit to go far so the bigger price, the better 

Have u ever watched cork
Woody ?
Cos for a bang rails bitch
in trap six is ****g night
Mare ! she could clear !
But huge risk for such great
Bitch ! sometimes not worth the risk when she be worth zonks when her racing over!!

got three on short list
Bypass blackie
Wooie no shoes
All about ay

De real mcoy is a hound i like at 50s,All about ya was one of much intertest but the feckers only 14/1 Droopys jet obvious.

59 railers
2 middles
11 wides


Borna Gem - 2/7 from trap 4, 0/4 trap 5, 0/1 trap 6


as well as she is running, and she is running out of her nut the draw is going to be absolutely crucial to her chances as you can put a line through at least half of the (m)s and (w)s


what's taking the rest so long to go up?? already played anyway but will go in again if anyone goes up bigger

365 priced-up. Got 4 big prices now and one enormous outsider but still waiting for more

nobody at all fancies what i've backed then good, i like it that way!!

I'd defo want to take on all the dogs who got to the Derby semis or final. Traditionally, they have a bad record in this and each year we have a dog who did well in the Irish Derby being ridiculously short before being knocked out. On that reason alone, I'd want to avoid Gem. Locnamon Bridie might have a squeak and at 33's with Bet365, it ain't bad. But no doubt there will be plenty of value at 66/1 and bigger in this year's Laurels.

Main Bet

Holborn Catchme @ 20/1 - had a good cut at him, was really impressed with him 3 weeks back when he trialled around Shelbourne, on the same night Knockglass Billy trialled just b4 him and he flew around and people was saying how well he went but when Holborn Catchme went he was every bit as quick from traps to the 350y traps showing brilliant early. He then showed brilliant early in his race 2 weeks back on a horrible night when the track was running on the slow side. With that early pace i think he will really be suited to Curraheen and he goes into the comp a fresh dog [which i always like] and once trapping down there i think he will make them all go.


Other Bets

Jacksallstar @ 25/1 - has massive pace but is a bit nuts, prepared to take a chance anyway as he is probably as fast as anything in it, can do it both ways and should be hard to get rid of if he keeps his mind on it

Badminton Girl @ 33/1 - don't usually back (m)s or (w)s in this but if she can come away and go up like she does at SPK i would not be surprised to see her go well in the comp, again she is coming in lightly raced [only 1 since the Oaks final] and despite the tough first round heat i thought she could go well at a price

surprised Spoils at least ain't up already

looking forward to this now, it's certainly more interesting than the SPK card

The price of holborn catchme did,nt last long P.F. [DOWN TO 16/1] ..Dont be to surprised about spoils m8 i had to wait 30mins[ my 2nd visit] to collect e900 on my bet on Slippy robert today, spoils are a shop i dont like going in to but you have to take value were you see it, thanks oddscheecker..p.s maybe boyles will slip up on holborn,s price

Think Locnamon Bridie's a non runner

so much for the heat of death

3 NRs in it now - 1,3 and 4

i'm sure Ted will be betting on the heats for us up here has done in previous years anyway

looks a real good comp - as always

Why couldnt Knockglass Billy do that Derby night? Having said that still dont think he'd have beaten Graduation Day with the break he got.

Very pleased with Glenanore Dancer but only a small bet coz told dogs that went a long way in Derby tired. Hope it's first 4 qualify? Got Sub and Gem in that position, but deffo got Cocoa through

Cool, cheers Mesi. Obviously, Sub and Gem can do much better. Even accounting for the wide draw, thought Gem rather disappointing. Not away well and little early pace, stark contrast to Derby night. Still hopeful about Sub. Broke well enough but squeezed for room at bend
