Couple of decent events today, some which will determine the season a head for a few Richard Hannon inmates.
Personally I viewed Tiggy Wiggy and Ivawood very much as 2 year olds, especially the former. Granted she has plenty in hand on the book today, but the 7th furlong is nearly certainly not going to see her in her best light, and I wouldn't be surprised if she bombed out totally. Laid at 2.1 to win, and 1.3 for place.
Very surprising drift on DiamondsandRubies in 3.30 Navan. Makes no sense. Currently 5. I was hoping for 5-2! Bocca Baciata does very much look the danger, she will relish the trip, and could end up in something like the Queens Vase at RA.
Chinese Light was beaten by Diamondsandrubies last time, but will surely get her head in front today. Currently over 2-1 on here, that looks very big,
Houblon des Obeaux looks a cracking e.w bet in the Scottish National at 18-1. Outclassed in the GC, his 3 previuos runs give him every chance here. Second to a very good winner off only 2lb higher in what was a much better race than this in the Hennessy, he has to have a right chance.
Wsa told before Flaming Spear debut last year that he was very much the apple of Kevin Ryans eye. Said he was the best two yr old he had had, but that the most exciting thing was that he expected him be so much more the complete article this term.
He looked a fine big horse when winning on debut, and whether today will be the day, I would expect him to prove better than the fav in due course.

Estidhkaar too big for me in the greenham. Very impressive every time he gets a decent surface. Agree that ivawood may not train on, if he does though, he'll be hard to beat.

Yeah, I believe he would have won last years County only for a brain dead ride by Dickie.
Backed the first two today, but would have slightly preferred it to be other way around.
