NAAS/CORK FANCIES ?

My Hometown, seems short at the prices? I take it this is a bit of a talking horse?

My hometown is s monster.. could be anything... was never gonna be impressive over hurdles at Xmas as still a baby and this year on is gonna be anything.. far from talking horse if anything people are trying to keep it quiet 

PRIDE OF BRAID 4.35
2nd lto was a decent run now with the kid taking 7lb off I think that may be the decider?
looking forward to 2.45 @naas..my hometown and VELVET MAKER..1.05 looks a interesting race

15.35 - Riverside City

The return to 3 miles 4 furlongs looks sure to bring about some improvement for this Gordon Elliot trained 6yo.  Jack Kennedy has had a quiet period but I think this was as a result of a conscious effort by these connections to preserve his valuable claim. I wouldn't be the biggest fan of the revered Mr.McManus but would prefer to back one of his in a 50k handicap rather than a beginners chase.

Riverside City relished the marathon trip over 3m 4f at Downpatrick as was only 5th going over the last but got up in the dying strides. He won that off 109 and is off 116 today before taking into account Jack's claim.

13.40 - Sizing Granite

This son of Milan was improving at a rate of knots at the end of last season culminating in a Grade One victory at Aintree defeating the Arkle second God's Own. This is only a Grade 3, he goes well fresh and de Bromhead can be relied upon to have him straight enough. The Luke McMahon owned horse was left down a bit by Claracm's run yesterday and that Grade 2 at Gowran looks weak. The excellent David Mullins appears to be consolidating a relationship with Gigginstown but Devil's bride should find things happening too quick for him on relatively good ground over the minimum trip.

16.35 - Screaming Rose

I think the ground is the most crucial factor here.Pride of the Braid is a very decent mare and is owned by Brian Gleeson's dad but the ground must be a massive worry after completely flopping at Mallow on debut (similar soft ground) after being punted from 8/1 to 5/2. The Willie Mullins trained home bred filly is expected to improve on her debut run with softer conditions expected to suit.

After race at Galway Tue, 8th Sep, 2015 (1st) She was very green the whole way and pricked her ears when she got to the front. I think there's a lot of improvement in her and I think a cut would suit her better. A lot of credit must go to my mother (Jackie) who bred from the mare and has now bred four horses which have now all won.

13.40-Sizing Granite - 5 points win @ 1.84
15.35-Riverside City- 1 point (ew) @ 16/1
16.35-Screaming Rose- 3 points win @1.77

Well put...'I wouldn't be the biggest fan of the revered Mr.McManus but would prefer to back one of his in a 50k handicap rather than a beginners chase'

Thanks easygold hope you take your own advice and take a nice walk for a month instead of aftertimimg every race

After-timing???? every race .......... Wow...... It`s Nov 1st....... one day of racing......... punters have 29 days left....... So yeah that`s after-timing all right.........
Look it punters think odds on is value or even 11/10-5/4 shots at this time of the season so be it......... But mugs will be mugs........

Ratings are only a guide...... done by a couple of people....... You be your own Handicapper don`t listen to them.

Ratings from the previous year........ very dangerous using those figures so soon this season. They have to prove themselves yet at their so called mark..... You get my drift...........  See you in December ......

Thanks again for the great advice  - horses might not be fit- stick to berating every jockey you back that doesnt win after the race

who was guessing ??

Ah Oddschecker is defo broke........ U clown......

I iwsh i got stuck right into hometown like i planned too, Pa will be reminding me of this mistake for years to come no doubt.

the wasp = snap = a sad git

Insideinfo = mug

But amen't I callitasucit as well though?

Easy get confused on here!

With apologies to WR, BUT your buddy Northern Eye has a more aptly named thread

YES, there's racing action in NAAS BUT ALSO a much better card in CORK 2moro with the €50,000 PP CORK GRAND NATIONAL + a 40,000 Grade3 Novice Chase and a €40,000 Listed Nov Hdle.

NAAS kicks off at 12.40 while CORK has a 1.00pm start

I note dj's SCREAMING ROSE for Mullins/RUBY bids to follow last years bumper success.

Ruby 'bitter/sweet' Walsh rides four more in CORK - "Ruby Walsh admitted feeling “bitter-sweet” following his big race win on the Giggs owned Valseur Lido, making his debut for new trainer Henry De Bromhead (formerly in the care of WP Mullins).

Up The Town (9/2 Meade/Nina) in the NAAS bumper is one I think will come on a lot from its Punchestown run. BEST OF LUCK with that WR - up against BRELADE 8/13fav Gordon/Codd



The in-form NICHOLLS stable has 5 in SANDOWN too, with 2.15pm Vivaldi Collonges 10/11 fav the stand out.

Kinratty Castle has added aids which puzzles me. Hot enough race. Thought connections might wait a while longer. Probably needs the big black ones though so this post has a disclaimer on it till 2018/19

There's always one - 2nd
