Down Royal Saturday

2.20 nb - Mr Man in the Moon showed plenty of pace over 6f at Navan lto wen 2nd behind Emperor Hadrian to say this drop back to 5 should suit and this doesnt look the strongest of races

2.50 - First in Command e/w - races off his lowest mark for 2 years, has won off 76/80 and races off 74 here- won around this time last year at Doncaster, obviously has nt been in that sort of form so far this season but could be one to bounce back at a nice price

3.25 - What a shockin race! Diamond Fire showed enough on his first start of the season wen 4th behind Sean Og Coulstan to think he should be right up there in a race like this, disappointed wen fav at Limk last time out but was heavily eased wen he could nt win, worth another chance

4.00 - Would be no surprise to see the five timer seeking Ghetto Gospel win here but this may be a bridge too far - one i think could go very close at an e/w price is Tin Town Boy, missed the break lto at Roscommon and made eyecatching ground b4 not having a clear run in the final furlong- was stil only beaten 2l in 6th- good e/w claims

4.35 - If Connyella reappears again after her easy win today at Limk wil take al the beating again- if not Strandfield Lady can take it- put in a much improved effort lto at Roscommon wen 2nd to Cabin Point and has Pat Smullen on top

5.10 Nap - Hassanali, last chance saloon for me with this one,a CD winner,2lbs below his last winning mark- has nt got the most inspired of rides last twice imo and should be well capable of winning a race of this nature

5.40 - Wat an absolute joke turnout for this with only 2 runners- Zinawar showed absolutely nothing on debut, should be a penalty kick for the Weld horse Serrakh
