im really looking forward to the week hes hoping some of us and win a few bob?
4.20 JEZKI
i think my pick can turn the form around back on home soil with a top jock back aboard ..he was beat fair and square at chelts but the jump at the last made the margin bigger than in should of been imo and i think jessie,s horse can get back on the winning trail.
4.55 SNAP TIE E/W
disappointing if truth be told but now has a good 7lb claimer on and if returning to some form has a decent e/w shout
6.40 HARRY TOPPER
a repeat of his grade 2 win @newbury would put kim baileys stable star in the mix here..im sure the trainer is not comming for a day out so im hopfull

TX I.G. one more and my lucky 15 is fixed up for tomorrow.
Think Reve De Sivola may be the value today at 6/1. This race may turn into a real slog and if it does this fella may be best equipped. Solwhit very short and Quevega has questions to answer both on the Cheltenham run and the form of the Mullins horses.
reve surely likes more cut in the ground and had a harder race than solwhit in chelt. solwhit won in aintree and I find it difficult to see many horses winning at the 3 festivals. Quevega all the way for me.
My 3 bankers for chelt were turned over but 2 (Jezki/SDC) thankfully have won this week, so hopefully the 3rd can trump today,Bostons Angel in the La touche.
Much as like Quevega, have to agree with Wildman & steam into the 5/4 about Solwhit, only had a hack canter at Liverpool so should be fine for this. GL.

Jesse said last weekend that Bostons Angel was her best chance of a winner so I'm with him also.........and with Solwit also..........and Turnand go in the last.......
i'd BE INCLINED TO AGREE WITH SANTRY , RE RDS , think i'll just lay willes its asking a lot of her against battled hardend warriors ...
Wr.........Jesse mentioned the ground being soft and not suiting her horses which she named, but she didn't say anything about ground concerns for Bostons Angel,. But what she did say is that Boston is in great form,and has a big pull in the weights with Ara Boy,Big Shu and the Outlaw........ all aboard Boston now,......but then just after penning her notes Jesse looked out her window, into the gathering gloom, and saw a Mr. R Power stride past and her confidence dissipated, somewhat.......
DID A LITTLE YANKEE FOR A £1 ....MISTER FIRST , UNCLE JUNIOR , BARESI ,QUICKPICK VIC ....A FUN LITTLE BET AND I'VE BACKED THEM ON THEIR OWN AS WELL ...OFF SOON ....GOOD LUCK ALL PUNTERS ....
Gotta stick with Reve, ground has to suit him way better than Cheltenham, hope Jacob stretches them from the off.
On a line through Holywell and Reve de Sivola suggests the mare would've beat Solwhit quite comfortably if he took part?
If one thing is proven this week, a real shift in quality in Irish National Hunt at the moment. Its just have sensational performance one after the other.
Remember not so long ago Charlie Mann was bringing Air Force one over to win our big races.

excuse me lads but im not sure how irish bumpers are weighted..how can STORM AWAY run on the same weight as others that have not run?i know as a mare she,ll get a allowence but shes won a race?
6.40 WAAHEB
always held in some regard at welds..but has not come up to expectations to be fair..the 2nd to JEZKI is fair form but i have to forgive lto?...
7.10 BLUEMOUNTAINBEACH
there is a worry with the ground for the supreme horse ..but is a half sister to the yards blackstairs mountain..who is a fine horse..if his sister is half as good they,ll be delighted
7.45 SALSIFY
lucky lto but only has to jump round imo..im not sure what price he,ll be but any odds against is a bet for me

good grief!lay the 3 of them.easy money.......tony and workrider running to form!
I hate Punchestown at this stage, 2 small winners for the week, Galway is nearly better. Water on the course again today ffs, i'm worse to have had a few bets on it.
Tony,have the highest regard for Waaheb but surely won,t be suited by the heavy ground?.Great chance on ratings and may well win but a swerve with the conditions for me.
hi pa,
im not sure the ground will be the problem ?..i think injurys and the fall at the first may be more of a worry?...but its a fair point pa..did you see my other post pa?..regarding the bumper?..how can a horse that has won a bumper carry the same weight as one that has not?..

Going from memory quite sure Weld said he is better on goodish ground but results to date says he handles soft.Did he pull him out once due to heavy?
Not sure about the conditions of the bumper Tony,only that the 4 year olds are getting an allowance.Good question.

It's a confined bumper with no penalties winners of races with a value less than thirty thousand are eligible.
Storm Away looked a filly of immense promise at Tramore,she is a half sister to Bahrain Storm who I think wanted good ground that would be my only worry as ground is desperate.

Hisaabat was never going a yard in a h/cap hurdle, and to think this horse was r/up to Countrywide Flame in the Triumph and won the 4yo Champion at this meeting last year its sheer cliff nosedive in form is a real head scratcher?, and I think Welds quietly fancied bumper horse Windsor Park was pulled up, so in a nutshell Id be weary of backing Waaheb who was pretty disappointing in his last run anyway.
thankyou wildman..i couldnt fathom it out....i feel sorry for all that are at punchy today the weather is ruining the day..

madam bovary was a good price, couldn't believe my eyes looking at the bloodlines, already knew the
horse, concentrate on the flat now a days. think I remember the horse winning at 16/1, usually
check all the results every day of the year, just to get to know the winners,can only remember a few.

THE FLY IS UP THER WITH ISTRABRAQ AN ANY CHAMPION HURDLER IMO
NO , WORST CARD EVER TODAY IMO...Never really thought i'd say that about punchestown ...Tomorrow's a smashing card...
So whats changed? the Fly beats the admirable and honest Thousand Stars by 7L's with ease again?.
Don't you mean the fly beats THAT horse that was tailed off when fav at leop....
Another way of looking at it he beat the 2012 champion hurdler by 8l without coming off the bridle SG.
Rock on Ruby hated the ground pa, the Fly adores that type of ground, but ROR beat the Fly on genuine good ground at Cheltenham 2012, as for the Fly's victim Pedlars Cross in 2011 (all out on the run in to fend him off) what has he done since?
Istabraq in a different leaugue imo.
Istabraq in a different leaugue imo.
Great performance from the fly, won 13 from last 14 all grade 1,s can,t knock him,he can only beat whats in front of him,come back very well from that defeat in ,12 imo.
cost me a fortune that fly in 2011 at Cheltenham, rock on ruby was the better horse on the day and in the formbook.
They are having a crack with County Champions in this,she should love the ground.
What is the all time record for Grade 1 wins anyone know?
3.10 AUPCHARLIE
wont be a great price but must be the one to beat
4.25 GLENS MELODY
as long as she is allowed to run on merit and she runs to the form of lto she,ll win imo
6.10 SIZING PLATINUM
a mate has a horse in the yard he tells me they rate the potts runner
good luck all

Aupcharlie has really disapointted me lately tony , So rather than bet him i'll keep a watching brief ...Rockyaboya would have a great chance in the last ...a smashing card for the last day ....
looks tough for me eddie..by the way i need to speak to you will call you tomorrow if thats ok?aupcharlie has disappointed i was hoping the ground would of been better but im sure he is better than we have seen.
No problem tony ...His last run leaves a lot of questions to be answered , Maybe like a few of willies he just had an off day....
cheers tony ,i will be laying the 3 of them
do u ever get tired of losing!

The Willie Mullins put the punters away comment from yesterday?, how can anyone believe a word that comes out of this guys mouth?
"Robina Mai (Patrick) runs in the Premier Fillies Bumper. She ran a cracker when an unlucky second at Wexford last month. She is a big strong mare who will handle the ground and we will be disappointed if she doesn’t fight it out here. We also run a newcomer called Bluemountainbeach (Katie Walsh) in this race. She is a half-sister to Blackstairmountain and is fit and ready to run. However, she would probably prefer better ground and we might not see the best of her until the summer months".
Bluemountainbeach; Held up in mid-division, progress from 4f out to chase leaders in 3rd into straight, ridden in 2nd 1 1/2f out and soon no impression on winner, kept on same pace inside final furlong to hold 2nd
Robina Mai; Tracked leader, close 2nd halfway, pushed along and lost place 3f out, weakened into straight, 18th of the 20 runners beaten 68L???.

..whos laughing now ..the fool has never put a winner up
@ Norn,between work and family stuff I ain't been able to get there this year and indeed I'm watching most of the race on replay and not live so I'm not really with it this year,I'll be having a look at Fahamore & Cairdin e/w in the 2ml 4f hurdle today.
Tony , waiting on stockston wing for a couple of grand ,
This ground should suit it better then most WR,best of luck.
Never traveled a yard there and was beaten with a circuit to run,too bad to be true
Ran very poor indeed punchestown , They had a little cut at it as well ..Such is racing...
jesus i would never have touched mullins horse there..hes just so far ahead of them all its becoming embarrasing
Why Tony he was infact the Racing Post tissue fav this morning which suggests he probably had the best form in the book?.
