if you want a bet.....cant see past saint vincents in the leinster final on sunday, backed them -1 at 4/6....portlaoise a fair side, lack the quality of old and they don't have a midfield....vins the first decent side they meet and they will be found out.
apart from the above, I think if Ronaldo stays fit, that Portugal are the team that are the most dangerous of the European teams outside of Spain and Germany. great trading price at 40s, as likely to at least reach the quarter finals given the draw.
on the racing front.....how the hell did gilt shadow go off at 9/2 in the Royal Bond....I have not read one journalist or otherwise who has pointed out the obvious negative, ie, that Crawford was unable to claim 3lbs, hence the horse in effect was carrying a penalty in a grade 1....message to Gordon and the lads, no point running him in a grade 1 unless you have a pro on his back.
...I think Andrew lynch is riding with little or no confidence..his body may have taken too many hits and he is certainly not in prime shape. represents very bad value on shorties.
....finally for the Wildman.....your theory on the Meade/Mullins bumper evasion had some merit...all bets look off on sunday, as what is meades best bumper horse is entered to take on one of willies best.......of course there could be a late non runner.....will both be punted in the ring...that is a different question.
a few musings

Surprised they are taking each other on as well as both were entered Saturday and Sunday, maybe N.Meade missed a trick by not declaring him for Mallow as well as that looks weak enough,be interesting alright to see how it will pan out.GL with your fancies.

when phil taylor and dennis preistly were playing dart tournements they split the prize money as one or the other was more than likely to collect and cover expences.
However when phil became super dominant he renaged and cancelled the agreement. |

They took each other on today at Navan and the coincidence of Meades good bumper horse coming up against Willie Mullins slowest is not lost on me.
Chancol fluctuated between fives and sixes on here all day with Sizing Brisbane hovering around 2.88,it may have been luck on the Meades punters part but Sizing Brisbane is slow and unlike all these good ones Willie Mullins has been producing,result a monster punt on Chancol. They had another stroke of luck in that being a Saturday lots of English punters were on here for the last race and they like robots backed Willie Mullins blind which meant the favourites didnt flip flop which they looked like doing. Their last stroke of luck was Another Rattler all but running out on the first bend dropping from first to last yet still picking up later and looking a winner for a short while getting beat five lengths,he lost at least five times that on the bend. Formidableopponent was a bad case at Gowran would have a right chance in Punchestown tomorrow but this stable is the most untrustworthy in the country. |

3 points probably a little bit flattering, but maybe Keen Leader might give the likes of Moorefield and Slashers a bit more credit now.
Then again no surprise a Laois man getting a sly dig at a Kildare team. |
