If Powder Hound gets beaten tomorrow.....then its time Noel packed it in.....

Hasn't the fire power anymore but had a winner at Cheltenham and Ned Buntline almost made it a double so still obviously able to produce them on the big day. Had a winner in Killarney although quite fortunate. I wouldn't be afraid to support his from now till November.

Will Nina be missed now that she is gone to Aidan

big shout mrcombustible! she was assistant trainer..so something has made her jump ship?..shes been there a long time!

Nina Carberry will be continuing her racing education by joining Aidan O'Brien's stable as a work rider.

Ireland's most successful female jockey, who has been champion amateur and won Cheltenham Festival races as well as the Irish Grand National, became racing assistant to Noel Meade last year.
Carberry, who is starting at Ballydoyle straight away, said: "It's great, I'm looking forward to it.
"I just thought it was a really good opportunity to learn a bit more about the Flat racing scene.
"Noel's been very good about it. I'll still be riding for him, and saddling up horses for him, anyway."

From RTE.ie

3 EWs tonight,
Uppertown Society, Has a bit of p2p form, could be up to picking up a place in a very poor race. 5.55 25/1
Ontheground, Won this last year  of 11.7, Back to form lto. 6.55 8/1
Cherryantor, JJ should give this a lovely spin round with no weight, has to have an ew squeak. 8.30 9/1

Power Hound beaten at 1/2, we wait for a statement from Noel Meade

The worst outfit in Ireland bar none......I actually backed it as no matter how low Meade has slumped to.....this couldn't lose....
Well joevalue......don't be afraid to be backing Meade until November.....because you will be one of the only ones backing him....
And as for the person who says he doesn't get the ammunition......Gigginstown  McManus  Sloan Reynolds plus plenty of others....bar Mullins nobody gets the support he gets.....the only thing id say give Noel to look after these days is a vodka and white....

Oh Dear

Touch of Cork footballers and Galway hurlers syndrome.

Pat Hughes and himself are at the same level now.......

Another shocking rise from John Cullen on Perrie Hill. He doesn't seem to try on anything. Only made an effort when clearly beaten there.

paulie, you obviously have more money than sense if you back odds on chances like that one. Yourself and snap should give up the game.

Is Willie Mullins still avoiding Meade's bumper runners or has that sense of trepidation begun to abate?

the word MEADE still puts the fear of god in wp!!

Id say Willie is scratching his head now saying to himself.....how in gods name are we going to get Noel these bumpers this winter.....maybe a road block and stop all the horse boxes containing the opposition....possibly tiger kidnapping the jockeys families of every horse under 50/1.....and even that may not be enough.....
Id say the combined forces are fairly sick of Noel now......and the "Noel Meade punters" as wilddan called them will be shoving the pavies out of the way in the river outside Listowel racecourse this year......

The brilliant timing strikes again.

DJ876 application form rejected again.

Its Paulie is the raven,he thought Thomond was a certainty as well as Powder Hound.

The reason made for the poor runs of his horses in recent times was they were been given water from a contaminated well.

Judging by yesterday's exhibition of Snow Falcon, they must be drinking that funny water again .
How is Willie going to get Noel a few bumpers this season ?, it won't be easy.

Lily **** ran poorly in the bumper as well.

I think that old tacit arrangement has been bypassed by time.

Willie Mullins will have to become Jim Bolger to get him his bumper wins now.

Gordon Elliott will win those bumpers now,he is a great trainer time for him to discreetly dump the unsavoury element in his stable.

What is wrong with the word ****.

Ok William Butler.
Multiple Ascot Gold Cup winner.

"time for him to discreetly dump the unsavoury element in his stable" Can you elaborate wildman?

When you are starting off you have to take whatever owner comes your way,some that came his way were dubious in the extreme.

He has now proven himself so has great owners clamouring to get in,time to weed out some of the old which in fairness I think he's doing.

Yéats.An offensive word seemingly.

lily **** could be a porn star or something?!!?
