leopardstown tomorrow....

Surely the ground will mess up all the form.

not to sure about that thecookie...leop best draining track in ireland....

the WORLD!

Whats the opinion on what way the ground will be?  Only horse i fancy is Adams Return pirce a bit tight for me at 9/2.  Horse seems to need soft.

Murtagh should have one or two after staying at home to ride at Leopardstown....probably would have kept the ride on Frederik if he was able to get over......

done the jackpot tonight,race 1 dawariya-crystal morning-spin of a coin,race 2-casela park-inwood-akasaka-adams return,race 3-false economy-saddlers rock,race 4 lady bennett-green to gold,i know soapp i put the roache horse in

You wont be getting much of a dividend from that.  All Fav and second Favs.  Better off not doing it.

well if a few of the fav dont win it should pay alright

Good luck with it

any ground updates ????? couldn t be depending on that american idiot on attheraces this evening ..telling us last night it "top of the ground " at naas

No rain here at the minute.  About 10 Mins away from the track today and it hasnt rained at all.  Hope it starts soon.

Dinglemick.......the track didn't change the going till after the 2nd race.......harsh to critise someone in a studio in London.

He is a clown that Canadian fella.  Mute butrton whenever he comes on.  Duggan is a bigger clown.

Agreed Gant the guy in the studio knew the description he had from Naas was suspect and it seemed to pain him to relay such info....he's ok and is better than most...and has good racing knowledge[;)]

Gant...... irishracing.com whom i may add provide an excellent race service stated on their website 15 minutes before the first race that it had started to bucket down rain at 4 o clock and hadn t stopped ...... The presenter on at the races stated just before the off of the first race when it had just stopped that it was a nice fine evening and it was " top of the ground at naas " .This to me misleads viewers   
your dead right it was the racecourses fault not to change the going to till after the second but i just think that being the dedicated race channel they should maybe look a bit more to conditions when they don t have garry o brien at thetrack ........
He then formed an opinion that the first race was a bad maiden ....now whether it was or it turns out that it wasn t i think his opinion was formed cause he thought it was good to firm ground and they came home a bit tired ....
Your right though Gant  out of line of mine to call him an idiot

To be fair our tracks are not the best at giving going descriptions......even to trainers on the day of a race.

i'm a little surprised at the price of teos sister tbh... i thought they would make this odds on with only one possible danger ...still maybe they will come heavy for this on track ....looking forward to having a look at her in the pre parade before she enters the ring proper...

INWOOD in the 7.20 my only bet



gl

Not a drop of rain in Clontarf all day. Looks like plenty of it in other parts of the country.

Race 4) Inwood. Agree with Buses here. Won similar race here in the past. A nice blow out LTO. Missed an engagement recently with the change of ground. An e/w chance if the rain stays away.

Race 5) False Economy. Proven over CD. The jolly is only a 3 yr old unproven at the trip.

Mind you Johnny has a juicy book of rides. 6 rides of which 5 are in the first two in the betting.

A few to lay tonight

Race 1) Teo's Sister 2.58

Race 2) Forever Glory 2.62

Race 3) Dawariya 2.5

Race 4) Adam's Return 5.4

Race 5) Saddler's Rock 2.74

Race 6) Green To Gold 2.04

Race 7) Red Calima 1.78

Most have gone shorter. These were laid at lunchtime.

I think the 4/1 with Ladbrokes  Lady Bennett in the second last race is a cracking each way bet with the dead 8 runners ......... over  1mile 2f  the last day at Navan in its first handicap she picked up real well despite still looking a bit green ( only its fourth ever run ) ... She was going away at the finish so the extra 2 furlongs should play to her strenghts and by High Chapperal the little bit of juice will suit aswell ....she got 11bs for it but she was starting off a lowly 55 so still think there is more improvement in her .. I know many might think Green to Gold is well in with the mandatory penalty for the   Bellewstown romp last weekend but there isn t much else in it so for me 4/1 each way well worth having a go .... good luck all

not going well at  the mo soaap[:(]

Favs have there day Buses when I'm not there and fail abymsymally when I go.

just back ...no show from bolgers in the pre parade before the first...when she did appear she looked really well ..i went and availed myself of the 7/4 on offer ... someone told me she touched as high as 11/4....still a winners a winner.....
backed oxxs in the next she was very disappointing ...fancied oxxs in the third but liked the looked of harringtons in the parade ring and backed it at 6/4 /o..a furlong don i was cursing myself as she was making hard work of going by the eventual third...once again alls well that ends well ..finally backed askaska only got 7/2 about this ..for littleman yours looked really well in the paddock him and the winner were stand outs ...i'm surethey'll find a little race for adam before long....finally couldnt belive my eyes during the running of the 7.55.the groundsmen were out on a tractor about 200yds from the finish ..if that had broken down i would't like to have been the management...they would have had o stop the race inside the final furlong madness imo and should never be allowed happen again....

Teo had a lovely way of going about her, very like big brother. surely there will be a Guineas quote in the morning. Fair play to Bolger for biting the bullet and racing her as I'm sure there are a few who wouldn't like to expose her just in case.

yeah she has the look of a very nice filly and quickend up really well for a filly having her first run...

for all those who backed inwood in the race ..i thought she looked terrible ...thats only my opinion...

Doubt she will get a guineas quote. She is three already.

Lads is Teos not a 3yr old ....guineas quote [:o][:o]

that she is ..lots seem to think shes a 2yo .....

OOOOOOOHHHHHHH, why is he bothering running her at all so. She must be really good.

Thought she looked big alright

shes not overly big ....but lots at the track seemed to think the same as you neill d

wonky your some puzzle. why didn't you stay for the whole card???
you know, like practically everybody else? would that not be the norm?

Ah I'm only a guesser really, the Teo thing just makes me think..... y'know big scopey yoke. They all looked v professional for 2yo's alright. Onto the Matron now apparently anyway

i made my money ...thats what i set out to do and was successful so why hang around...been the pro you claim to be , even you should know that....

Well said workrider.....neill you might also be taking the phiss...and fairplay if you are.....bolger said after the race that he has not been so xcited about a first timer in a long time....she's very good....though JB could be settn up Shiek Mo for a foal or 2 as well.....tough old boy JB........

No, said this morning she might take up Matron engagement, just got a bit mixed up, don't think the 3yo fillies we have seen so far are all that so it ain't impossible that she might be the best of them. Yes, Bolger lnows how to extract money, what was the name of that one he sold just after his 3 Dewhurst winners in a row, can't even remember it. Ran in the Dewhurst after sale was agreed, he was stuffed anyway.

fair enough wonks. but i always find there's more to be made when you're on a roll....

Creachadoir landed a group 1 for Godawful after he sold him though.

well done workrider delighted you won a few quid tonight

thickster ..KNOWING when to stop is the secret......

wow free advice from the wonkster. i am honoured

yeah huddys had a great night ...had to drag myself away fancied oxxs bigtime in the 7.55.....but trying to hold onto my discipline so no bet sadly....you're doing great yourself lately...keep it up....

Chabal is the horse id say ur thinking of

you can pass that tip on to your private clientele free of charge mate ..i'm sure they'll love you for it....

thanks 1 let me down in the jackpot in the last and i was going to put it inpaid 422 great div for the results,had hannons 2 year old earlier so a winning day in the end

he gave them a winner at portman park earlier they all made a packet

backed that myself ...now stop interrupting me from counting my money.....

Yeah, that is him indeed, might have won a Sandown Classic trial, but not much else. Most likely to be seen next in a Nottingham Conditions race in late October worth 3 grand.

2 Bolger group horses that dropped off the face of the earth, Gan Amhras (Guineas placed, subsequently lost plot), my guess he is probably standing as a stallion in Kazakstan.

Three Rocks, Group Class sprinter/miler, what happened these two, anyone know?

neill d remember backing gan amhras at the curragh one day after his good run ...he was a horrible little horse i was chasing as i'd had a bad day ..remembering saying to myself this is crazy this fellow has no chance ..think it was 13/8 or thereabouts ..he finished nearly last....

Yeah, that Guineas form he had was amazing though, STS in front, Delegator 2nd, then an undercooked Rip and Mastercraftsman in behind. Amazing to think he never won after that.

I presumed you have the rod out when I read that first neill d!

no no, they were genuinely undercooked, Listen, its a long year[;)] obviously

i think giant means he thought you knew she was a 3yo....

No I genuinely didn't hint was the Matron in the paper but I didn't think......... seriously, she must be really good if he is running her now after all the problems.

Didnt do any damage with Adams Return.  Lucky enough to get third.  Knew my faith before racing when the rain didnt arrive.

you never cease to amaze me littleman ..you always have all the angles covered....

I have told you before i take morning price.  Thats the chance i take.  Expected rain didnt arrive.

Good card in Cork tomorrow.  Im going to plough into Oneeightofamile.  Should bolt up against this lot.  Hopefully get 3/1 tomorrow.

according to your post at 11.07 you thought 9/2 was a little tight ..now you come on telling me you took morning prices ..it ended up 5/1 ...cracks are starting to appear littleman....

I took the price.  If the rain came the horse would have been 5/2.  I am very rarely wrong on price.  Didnt see any other bet on the card so i took a chance.  We all do it.

the winner was backed off the boards...why not lay it on here then if you thought it had no chance ....?.....i cant understand a so called pro punter as you call yourself having a bet while not knowing what the ground is going to be like..in all my years in racing i have never heard such tripe...

Wonky i had a saver on the winner aswell.  It ran well on its handicap debut behind the horse i backed last week Newland Princess.   I dont care a damm what other people do.  I am my own man and my way of doing tings work for me.

i should have known you had a saver on the winner ffs ..how stupid of me....

On my life i did Wonky.  I suppose the pros never have a saver in a race either?  Fancy anything tomorrow?  Back of the pack if she is right will take beating at 9/2

That`s it wr. I expected it to be a 2yo when I first heard it mentioned. Did Bolger give any reason why it took so long to reach the track? I wasn`t surprised at the late drift tbh. Nice filly.

Said it had niggly problems all last year.  Said the matron stakes is the target.

she's had a lot of little niggly problems giant nothing serious ...the reason i think people thought she was a 2yo might be something to do with timing of the race..usually the first race on the card is a 2yo race..maybe that confused a few...

Absolutely wr. Strange for there to be no 2yo maiden. Probably the worst card I`ve ever seen there.   
Cheers Bws.

Adaskara looked very well in the ring. Should win again soon. Didn't think a whole lot of Saddlers Rock's form before the race and he might not have beat a lot but he looks to be a progressive type. Should be seen to better effect again over two miles on softer ground.

if you look at the prizemoney giant i think that tells a story ..off to bed to count my money.... god bless....

Night Wonky

night littleman....
