ta lads , i have to admit i dont trust charles byrnes he could hgave been spoofing even though the timing of his so called setback did happen at a inoppurtune moment , kicking king had a much earlier setback and had time to recover, something tells me binocular is a e/w bet and if the ground is really good starluck will go well

I think the e/w bet is sizing europe , the atr show last night suggested the stable is a bit iffy , what do people think of that?

im posting this everywhere so sorry for the repetition, but i know for a factthat jp is backing lami and not garde.make of that what you will.

ccb is his banker of the day, but the fact he is backing lami seems more signficant tome cos i can see people lumping on garde even though the owner is on lami

He backed L'ami last year too iirc :|

POP. :(

:(

BJB WHAT WAS PLACED IN MENORAHS NAAS BUMPER WIN ?

BJB WHAT WAS PLACED IN MENORAHS NAAS BUMPER WIN ?

that **g yok of Shark Hanlon he told us to punt last week ran behind Menorah in that bumper :|

On that ground you just have to be closer to the pace - hope its a lesson learned

Gentle Paddy and Wise Oscar.
I had a chunk on that winner at Doncaster a few months back. Sick.

Ride was fine, horse wasn't good enough. He ran to his Irish form, Brits were simply better.

Agreed.

I dont think so Allez - closed on them all the way to the line

PF THATS WHAT I THOUGHT ANY IDEA WHAT OTHER WAS PLACED?

made a few poor jumps also

Given a good ride by jockey. Gave him plenty of daylight at hurdles, brought him thru with every chance, not good enough on day.

jesus the Tans are delighted...Duinguib simply not good enough... how did the time stack up???

Norn

Menorah
Gentle Paddy 10
Wise Oscar 1/2
Dermey Bowler 8

should have been closer to the pace, wouldn't have had to come so wide then...live and learn...

3.55.9

anyone think the final hindered dunguibs chances

def hindered get me out of here- reckon he would of won in a driving finiish

Why do you think he was brought wide??!! Had he got in traffic and fallen they'd be on here saying what a poor ride it was not keeping him wide!! Horse given every chance, just not good enough.

how can you say he was not good enough, hung wide the whole way round at the back of the field, at the second hurdle the horse nearly took of on him, then he had to take a pull, he basically dissapointed the horse and i didnt bet in the race.

He doesn't jump fluently enough to track the pace up close, would be shuffled back at every hurdle.

Poor Brian, gonna get slaughtered for doing nothing wrong, and if he won would have got no praise as was on a aeroplane.

If Dunguib was to meet Meonrah in a race with a smaller field he'd beat him

Brian was probably given instruction to keep him out the back, most of Fentons runners are kept out the back and produced late..

Agree 100% Over The Last, he'll farm small field tactical affairs. However he doesn't jump well enough to be a complete superstar, it does however show what a tool he is to get so close to two very decent horses imo.

Its a very measured criticism of brian o connell to be fair, the pace wasnt that fast and he ran in the latter half of the field till the home turn and ran wide, as people said its a lesson learned hopefully, many people would change the jockey philip fenton isnt like that , are the owners?

Noooooooooooooo :(

Delighted for connections of Sizing Europe

How long is the bbc delayed. Sizing was 1.01 when he was getting caught on the tv lol

WELL DUN SANTRY & SWINIA AN SIZING BACKERS

Anto paddy rode another blinder there.

Great jumping performance there.

Glad to see Sizing put that CH run to bed

NORN i've said it for all winter...he's the best novice i've ever seen !!!

If only he hadn't burst two years ago :(

CCB burst a blood vessel again

YES EVERY EMAIL U REMINDED ME FAIR PLAY M8 WAS GREAT RIDE FROM UNFASHIONABLE JOCKEY . ME THINKS ITS GOIN BE LONBG WEEK OFF UTOXXETER SAT IF ANY £ LEFT

Lynch might be unfashionable but he's an excellent s'chase jockey.

Super win for connections and horse, well done those who kept the faith.

he proved he was no mudlark

Sizing ran a blinder, can't wait to see somersby over further too :D

Good run by offshore account, layers having a great day, package pipped and bensalem would have peed in if it stayed upright, some punters are behind

MACROCKY BACKED OFF SHORE ACC @ OVER 100 RAN CRACKER AN THINK BESALEM DEF WUD WON IF STAYED UP

not a great day so far
hanging on a Go native to get back on terms
single and a double with Voler

fecking dunguib and the package

could so well of been a fantisco day for me, had sizing and had a each way accum on all 6 races

khyber kim here but reckon the hurdle up close to finish wont suit

celestial halo could nick this with a ruby masterclassbol

on garde and voler to complete the each way accum- prob worth feck all for the place

was in a bookies in galway today and the lad in front of me wanted to have a grand each way on freneys well at 25/1

4 places so prob thought it a cracking bet for the place, cant see it winning myself

:(

casey jones dead

backed him when he won last xmas at a huge price, thought a lot of that horse, could of been anything

Something happened Go native at the second? never in the race after. Definite not the horse imo

I backed nothing today just a few lays here, had a feeling about binocular when i looked at the race , ap always had him in the right spot, the race set up perfect
I tried to put a placepot through betfair at 1.15 , it didnt go through dont ask me why , has anyone else expierienced such problems, i would have 4 legs up waiting on the last 2 , hopefully it wont come up
Big difference this year with the irish , we dominated in the past , some irish punters are having a mare id say

Yup :(

one more :(

Go Native never in it after massive mistake, C4 commentator missed it.

so laddies went evens dunguib & 9/2 go native

hmmm, i htae that old cliche but they knew!!!!

Bloodbath. :(

come on nina

my banker off the fesival, please nina, im begging you

Henderson is some gangster, Iam finishing up with gambling on horses this place has it ruined

how can Quevaga be race fit if she hasn't run since last year?

I'd say I'm breaking even, just about

Need 1 of the first 3 to win the next, preferably the fav


I'd say fellas are smashed.

Sign in if you were told Binocular was a machine before the Fighting Fifth and bet accordingly!

70K v 100K Garde

makes the CH look like a 7f maiden at Bellewstown

Lacdoudal nicely weighted. e/w for me

After sizing winning the arkle it proved the well being of de bromhead yard so australia must have agood chance here

bookies are really laughing now

damn it, garde couldnt even get 4th

Over the last 16 Mar 15:47

how can Quevaga be race fit if she hasn't run since last year

Horses make fools of us.

Some good tipping there lads.

Race 1) Menorah. Plenty of shouts 4 this one. Ernst was first up.

Race 2) Sizing Europe. Andrew Lynch at the Chel preview last week said he was catching pigeons. Anthony Bromley said at the preview ignore Captain Ceebee as its jumping was woeful that night.

Race 3) Chief Dan George. Not tipped up here. Anthony Bromley said it was between The package and Bensalem. How far would that of won had he stayed on his feet.

Race 4) Binocular. Tipped up here at least once.

Race 5) A New Story. Well done, Norn, Prospero, and others

Race 6) Quevega. Over The Last horses always make us eat our words!! :)

Did Bromley mention the new Kauto Star?

yes he did. He says its a cert despite the jockey. He bought that and Punchestowns.

He said Master Minded was the nap. He said if you were going to put €250 on it, double it up.

SOAPP WAT A FINISH FOR ME LAST 6 BETS

DOUBLE DIZZY & A NEW STORY @40
QUEVEAGA
DULCE DOMUN @50 SOUTHWELL
LOVEY DOVEY LOCAL P2P WINNER GAMBLED 9/1 TILL 5/1

EARLIER FELT SICK WITH FLU BUT NOW I FEEL GRAND :^0

GOOD LUCK REST WEEK M8

Same to you mate. That will be a few pounds for you to drown the shamrock..

Putting €50 on chelsea tonight. Left L'ami out of the place pot in error. It cost me only a tenner in the end but i said I would lay quevega to get it back. That has me down €30. So Chelsea at 4/6 gets me that back DV.

Sizing Europe, The Package and Khyber Kim in an e/w Lucky 15 got me a few bob back too.

Race 1) Menorah. Plenty of shouts 4 this one. Ernst was first up.

ahem

Shakervilz, who was an intended runner in the Irish Independent Arkle Trophy on Tuesday and who is also entererd for the RSA Chase on Wednesday, will alsomiss the festival.

maybe they are sorry now. Walked all over Osana at Navan a few weeks ago.. That form would have put him close to sizing europe.

DUP & SHAMROCK NOT GREAT MIX :^0 BUT WORKING OR I DEFF WOULD BE GETN PI$$ED SO ILL DEFF CELEBRATE ON FRIDAY AS HITTING ENG GOIN SAT UTTOXETER

SOAPP I BACKED SHAKERVILLZ @ 500 THINK WEAPONS AMNESTY GREAT BET FOR RSA

three for Ireland there and i'm not irish


Apologies sir. Very Good picking.

Give me four for my Lucky 15 tomorrow please in the first four races. you the man!!

Norn, give me your Lucky 15 too please.

I am hitting Gowran on sat.

Good luck in Uttoxeter. We have a good record in that long distance race.

ha! thanks for the belated mench.

I am all in on Long run tomorrow and will be keeping my stakes small elsewhere. I believe it could produce the performance of the festival.

I fancy Drumbaloo for the bumper but you guys will know better than me for that race.

I take it as a negative that PPower are best priced (8s) against it to be perfectly honest.

Norn Iron is a better bet to go through the card - wd to him and good luck to everyone tomorrow. Did well to get three Irish winners despite Dunquids, CCB and GC going down.

Patrick Mullins at a recent preview said he cant have Drumbaloo. He told me on Sunday he should be on Dayofalifetime. Havent checked the bumper myself yet.

Much of the race revolved around last year´s imperious Champion Bumper winner Dunguib, who had gone from strength to strength since embarking on his hurdling career, culminating in a bloodless win in the Deloitte at Leopardstown last month. That success caused plenty of debate about how his jumping would stand up here, as he was sluggish at his hurdles, and there was also the other matter of his usual pilot Barry O´Connell, who had yet to even ride in a race over jumps outside of Ireland. Well backed, he was restrained early on, as he had been on his previous outing. It seemed clear that the tactics were to keep him wide, surely in order to give him a clear sight of his obstacles, but his jumping was sufficient and clearly too much had been made of it after his previous win. It was O´Connell´s decision to keep him right on the outside of runners, just as the first pair were going for home turning in, that ultimately found him out, and he lacked the turn of foot on this quicker surface to make up the deficit the manoeuvre cost him.

It may well be that time will tell hehas run close to his previous level in defeat, but surely had he saved more ground early on he would have got closer to them where it mattered. He will now likely head for the Punchestown Festival and his trainer is inclined to stick to the novice route.

Even the racing post recognises they fcuked it up.

Agreed Ace.

No point in going the scenic route just cos you think you are on the best hoss.

Chelt is just far too competitive for anything to go wrong, or get anything wrong tactically. Seems like Fenton listened to much to all the negative comments re the jumping and wouldn't just let the horse run a normal race up the inside.

If Ruby & Nicholls had Dunguib, he'd have won today imo.

If he went the shortest way round on the inner and jumped poorly because he wasnt getting a sight of his hurdles, the same mugs would be crucifying him for giving a "dodgy jumper" a "brainless" ride. The horse wasn't good enough on the day, if he had won by a length under the same ride how many people would be commenting on how wide he was?

He had the hoss way too far back as well.

The old adage "You can give weight but not distance" comes to mind here.

That was just bad luck. They clearly analysed the race, as we all did, and thought there would be plenty of pace, so they took the decision to drop him out. As it turns out, they didn't go quick at all and O'Connell was stuck. He couldn't risk firing up a hard pulling horse by asking him to take closer order after a few furlongs. All told, a combination of factors conspired against him, but was he finishing like a horse that would have hacked up under different circumstances? Not for me. In fact, he was weakening slightly at the finish. Just not the same horse today for whatever reason.
