2.45 tropical three
the hourigan yard seem to be in better form than for a long while my selections bumper win lto at punchestown could be decent form?..if he jumps i fancy he,ll put it up to the mullins runner who has been 2nd too manny times for my liking!
5.15 wandering star
needs one to come out to get a run but this half sister to unaccompanied should be up to going close if getting a run ?
good luck all

Any reason to believe Weld's would be smart other than breeding?

Owner has been given rubbish by Weld in the past. Interesting that Moyglare offloaded her so quickly.

Booking of Jane Mangan a positive but she must be a very average looker or have a physical ailment to have fetched so little at the sales as a yearling.

7.10-Had a decent sighter on her seasonal debut at Limerick over an inadequate 2m 2f,streaky trainer had a winner yesterday,if this dual bumper winning mare still retains any of that ability,she is chucked in tonight on only her second start in a handicap.

Report callitasucit May 13, 2013 3:38 PM BST
Won in the dark is very ground dependant, very rarely has he had his conditions. Just doesnt operate on soft or worse. Obviously in decline now too though. His run in the stayers hurdle at Aint, when in behind Big Bucks and Grand Crus was top notch. I reckon he has had his ground about 5 times since then,once when brought down in same race, another time when winning this last year. Probably gone a bit soft for him again tonight.

if the horse can jump then it has the class to really win this without much fuss..im not sure how short he,ll be..but i,ll be on as long as its not stupid ...jessies are running ok..im surprised they are running but it must be in hope of the ground and the horse may run threw the summer?..

tony thinks steps to freedom can win without much fuss........don't know what racecard you have...I would have thought the 12th highest rated hurdler in Ireland ought to make a winning debut over fences on one of his local tracks, especially given the master pilot who has already racecourse schooled him on his back. rebel has won more than twice as much career prizemoney than Harrington.

to date, the sire, statue of liberty, sire of steps, has produced the winner of how many chases?  the answer 1. fills you with confidence!.

Looks an easy one now for Rebel Fitz with Steps having being pulled out due to the ground.

"Steps To Freedom has the class to win this without much fuss." Have you not heard of Rebel Fitz, a Galway Hurdle winner and a 155 rated horse over hurdles? And by the way Tropical Three, winner of the Fillies Scheme Bumper at Punchestown, is a she and not a he Grin
Report JayTrumpOldTomDubbl May 14, 2013 12:18 PM BST
I really find it so disappointing when Keen Leader comes on here and chastises  others for being brave and expressing an opinion. Yes thats just what it is an opinion. Keen Leader obviously does not believe in freedom of speech. Just like the present Government KL wants to clamp down on peoples right to express an opinion. This from someone who comes on here and urges all and sundry to back a 4/11 shot in a semi-final of a song contest that the vast majority have no real interest in.

Keen Leader stop beating your own drum, try a little bit of humility, its not all about your good self, and good luck with your 4/11 napLaughLaugh
Report Ozymandius May 14, 2013 12:29 PM BST
There is absolutely nothing chastising about Keen Leader's post above.  It's not his style.  His rebuttal of Tony's tip was informative and helpful, robust yet polite.

Man up for god's sakes.
Report pa lapsy May 14, 2013 12:40 PM BST
A fair point i thought myself from KL and others, Rebel Fitz is rated 7lb better than Steps to Freedom on hurdles form and would have been better suited by the ground ,right to have disagreed imo.
Blossom Gate ran a fine race yesterday for ya dj, a good spot beforehand.
Report Tolmi May 14, 2013 1:05 PM BST
Keen Leaders post merely highlights the fact that in stating that Steps To Freedom should win without too much fuss the poster has not had more than a cursory glance at the race and seemingly didn't even spot Rebel Fitz.Expressing an opinion is fine but it is surely only worth reading if the poster has done enough homework to be able to form an opinion.Tony 57 had obviously not done any research on the race to enable him to have a valid opinion.

In fairness to Keen Leader any time he puts up a bet he gives a full account of how he arrived at his conclusion and does not express an opinion without being able to articulate how he arrived at it.

As for asserting that he obviously does not believe in freedom of speech how anyone could form that opinion is beyond me.

For what its worth I would be reluctant to involve myself with Rebel Fitz on ground softer than he would like.He is the most likely winner but not for me at the price.
Report kavvie May 14, 2013 2:26 PM BST
rebel fitz should win but at the price and with ground softer than he likes there are safer 2/5 shots out there i would think..

Its not Killarney, but Red Roar worth a good bet in 5.40 Bev. 5lb lower than when winning last June, has a good draw and cracking record at the track. Has a very good record when fresh...one win, 3 places..., and Berry is in super form in the last wk, with most of his runners, unusually for him, hitting some part of the board.8-1, 9s with Hills and on here.
