Along Came Casey

Hint of a Tint for me, she would have nearly won if she was better placed at Ascot, gets the weight allowance and will prefer this ground.

Definitely see where you are coming from there Neill with H.O.A.T....lots with chances to be fair,,but sometimes you have to go with what see and this one really looked the part lto.   Two others that really impressed me lately were Alive Alive Oh in Navan listed event and OBrien winner of Coventry Stakes.  All three look as if they will take a step up in class in their stride.(On the subject of the Coventry Stakes its hard to figure how this contest is still classed a Group Two when we see what passes as Group Two and even Group One over here on occasion)  ...

worried about the trip here for casey. fairyhouse is a fast flat track. this is totally diff to 1 mile around leop.

Can't understand why Joseph O'Brien has chosen Hanky Panky ahead of Snow Queen. I give Snow Queen and E/W shout. On a line through Brendan Brackan, Ger Lyons should know whether his Lilys Angel is good enough to beat Casey. Money for Lilys Angel would be significant.

I think Lilys Angel has a smashing chance , the track will play to her strengths , she has a massive e/w chance , off for a round of golf ..Good luck all...

8.00 angels guard thee..
my only worry is the ground but if she handles it then I fancy she,ll win again

I nominated Alive Alive Oh myself some time back but this filly is in danger of being the most over-hyped horse this season and that will be reflected in her price. It may be worth while looking for proven group one or two form as value to beat her wherever they eventually run her.

She's weak enough in the market Tony(but there is no liquidity)-forget about her if she is weak near the off after a 9 month break.

The maiden she won at Roscommon was over 12 furlongs in heavy ground(weak race but won by 14 lengths),so not sure the step back to 10 furlongs on good ground will be ideal-dam was a winner over 12 furlongs and most of her progeny are hurdlers.
She is the least exposed and has the most potetial but the market will be vital with a Tom Stack runnner returning from a break.

Abu Nayef is  the only 3 year old in the field and is very well bred out of Mick Channon's queen mary winner Queens logic,was disappointing on his return tho.

I was going to back the consistent Golden shoe each way but Welds is a non runner so unfortunately only 7 runners now.

thanks for that dj..

A few to lay tonight

Race 1) Pillow 3.45 A big drifter on here.

Race 2) Caesaria 3.8 Looks solid to me

Race 3) Along Comes Casey 3 15 Will have to carry a penalty in the Listed 7f race at Galway (Thurs) if it wins.

Race 4) Three Bells 3.2 Looks solid to me.

Race 5) Angels Guard Thee 3.6 Might need the run on his/her seasonal debut.

Race 6) Capitol Hill 5.1 Wears the headgear.

Race 7) Great Explorer 2.7 Looks solid to me.

strange that along came casey going off so short, hasnt even won at group level yet, lilys angel too many tough races this season.
checked winner had won a group 3 LTO and was going for a treble, just seen the 2nd behind declaration of war, thats over 11f,
tonights race was 7f. first rating was OR 67 thats low.

step a side suckers,let the professional in.....cheers to wr and palookaville for their contribution,the tank is ticking along nicely....open yre eyes wildman,these geezers wr,palookaville,old pa and dickie are born losers!

Great Explorer should take all the beating in the last,Galileo colt should appreciate the better ground and opposition looks weak??

What ya reckon Usain Bolt-you hitting the pink button??

What ya doin Ratty?
Waiting till the race is finished?
Hard luck Oufie just done.

relax old pa,i have already made my move.

Joseph made its mind up for it....Hard going...

Hard going is right,battled though all the same. Wd DJ.

Yep well done DJ good call.  And yes Workrider decent ride by Joseph O Brien to be fair ,gets loads of stick when  not at his best no harm to praise when he gets it right...Jesus that DK Weld would break ya ...14/1 shot wins the first then 6/4 from 11/4 poke lets you down... Winner very resolute to be honest ,all the more meritorious carrying a group three penalty....
