Irish 1000G (26th May)

snap imp beat yer by 2 mins

Yes, must be old age...typing is not my forte along with some others eg picking winners. No worries, will try harder next time.

hermosa 5/2 on here i dont usually back at prices this short but have had a few quid on as i am well in front on the horse .

I can imagine,...you backed her. I'd back her too if I'd done the same until she loses. But, she's been a boogie horse for me eg backed her for the Oaks, and AOB played merry-go-round with me. Hope she wins for you. I've done Qabala here, and Coronation Stakes some time ago. We'll see come sunday...

i also backed her  for the oaks shappens i suppose with the ante post punting we are always gonna get a few nonners as long as its only a few its part and parcel .

This race is not on ITV, I believe. And it costs 100p to watch it "live" here - used to be 50p. I thought inflation was only 2%, but not here I guess.

imp i put that etoile up last week it was 40s when i put it up . put it up on the horses forum as it wernt ante post hope ya had some !

Sorry, nope. Where is she running?

obviously you missed it it was the 3.50 naas sunday ,it won at 12/1 sp it was 40s on here earlier when i put it up  aob also had the fav in the race ,

I do recollect that race now; AOB had the fav too, and it was stuffed like a turkey at x'mas. I must have been distracted by that one from France.

My dislike for backing fillies from two to three years old is well documented but one still has to try and this afternoon the clock suggests a small each way on East which I will duly undertake.

However, as in daily life the female of the species are not that reliable where timekeeping is involved.

That said I am a huge fan of females and therefore make allowances and if you find a good one they are diamonds, Triptych, Dahlia, Pebbles, Enable, Zarkava, etc etc spring to mind. I am not sure such a diamond exists in todays race.

The clock for which of East's past races in particular?

Suffice to say that the selection needs to perform equally well on good to firm ground.

Qabala and Just Wonderful for me; the latter with a different jockey could pay dividend this time.

going for fairy land and iridessa to turn the form around 20s and 12s on here

shes a good un

Bungle questioning the jockey, complete helmet.

the slating  of jockeys is the greatest system known to man or beast ,never fails that clown mickweblembe on the horses forum slated m.dwyer yesterday on the horses forum que ...................2 winners 1 at 16s

The clock lied.

It's a shame the winner is going to the French Oaks instead of Coronation Stakes at Royal Ascot.

Very impressive today for sure - well done Foyles.

Visually you had to be impressed. She beat the Newmarket also rans more comprehensively this time. If she has improved by as much as the difference between the two races suggests then Foxtrot Liv and Dean Street Doll have also made big leaps, which is possible. The time of the race, however, doesn't back this up and points to her improving a couple of pounds over Newmarket and the other fancied runners performing terribly. Obviously a fully deserved winner but personally I think she's going to be overrated on that. She's no Winter yet and certainly no Minding.

Qabala scoped abnormally post race. Were there not similar instances with Sizing John and at least one other hprse/s whose name/s I cannot remember at the moment? Let's hope we see Qabala at Ascot, but no Fairyland and Just Wonderful as both will be dropped in trip, according to AOB.

Hermosa has improved beyond recognition this season; next race the French Oaks, according to AOB.
