Not often I'd feel as confident as I do about a first timer over jumps as I do today about this mare, she only has to jump around, famous last words I know to win. I have backed Pink several times this year and as soon as she's jumped off my confidence evaporates , she's just one of those mares , so hopefully she performs as normal today .

I texted you a bigger priced one for later. Though I'm probably as bad as Willie the jinx

Retired from duties on the level following a fourth placed finish in the Prix Royal-Oak in October, Princess Zoe was sent to the Tattersalls Mares Sale in December – but having failed to raise what connections were expecting, Patrick Kehoe and Philomena Crampton’s high-class mare returned to Mullins, with a possible switch to the jumping game mooted. “She will be out sooner rather than later because the only reason she is going hurdling is with a view to Cheltenham.” [i]He went on: “I think we’re leaning towards going there (Cheltenham) with just the one run". “The owners are staunch National Hunt fans and I’ve gone along with it, but I’m quite worried about a Group One winner jumping hurdles,” said Mullins. “I’m not against it but it wasn’t my call, I wouldn’t do it myself. “That’s what she was originally bought for (jumping), but she’s a Group One, Group Three and Listed winner on the Flat. The owners would like to go jumping if there was a chance she would make Cheltenham, so we will give it a go.”[/i] Good luck workrider. Sounds like Tony's going to be a nervous wreck. |

So is Paddy Keogh the owner , I had many a drink with him years ago. He gave me a lift home from Leopardstown in the 90s and boy was it entertaining. As we say over here he's a gas man , really funny and great fun to be around, I'd say he'll be like a cat on a hot tin roof today.

Actually this is going to be a very strange day for me today in Punch , for the first time in many many years I didn't renew my membership so the thought of having to pay in is strange indeed...

I suppose WR the SP makes up for the half stake dead heat somewhat. Would have won bar mistakes. Winner well beaten by stable companion Deep Cave at Leopardstown who looks decent even more so now.

Happy enough with the d/h MJK with the way my luck has been thought for a second she was beat but she showed great resolve to get back up , she looked a little big in the paddock so I'd say they were more than happy with that run with more to come . Backed San F. @ 5/2 so got a little back from losses over the weekend . Limerick beckons tomorrow..

. I met one of the Rovers lads , horse ran poor but so many of Henry's are , then he nearly comes and blows me out of the water, Rachel lost her whip 50 yards from the line could have made the difference... |
