NAAS/CORK FANCIES ?

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

Goonyella.. only needs to be 80 per cent yo win on the snap.. deadwood against and conditions to suit 

The mad well.. love conditions and was second in this last year in far stronger contest when coming in fresh. Question marks about rest. 109 Mark given to top one a bit unfair

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 

Cool jumping thanks, will just have a watch of it.

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

I see Wonks has officially transferred to the Horse Racing forum.  Must be in a right strop with us

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

nice write up dj..

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'

Race fitness...... = ratings get left behind and make punters look fool`s........ too early boy`s....... far too early......... go out for a walk everyday for the next month...... come back and you will know a lot more and the pocket will be o.k

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

Maybe the post was made after how unfit Goonyella probably was, might have a point with that.

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 ......

TheWasp..... you have a bee in your bonnet......... Calm down Oueen Bee

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

Horses might not be fit????? so why guess with odds on shots........ going by form 12 months ago........

who was guessing ??

Get into bed easygob ya plum

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

move along,nothing to see here.

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.

Ozymandius notes Workrider posting on the racing forum,he neglects to tell us that he followed him over there and posted cowardly comments on it.
Slickster turned up there also with some unamusing worthless insults.

Slickster and Ozymandius are a nice double act,both have fantasy lives,both dishonest and both notorious after timers.

the wasp = snap = a sad git

nasty stuff from Ozy...he has some streak of bile in him

Insideinfo = mug

Ah Jesus Snap.....that's like saying I'm Callit.....duuuhhhh!!

But amen't I callitasucit as well though?

That's it.

Easy get confused on here!

insideinfo = seether extraordinaire

Way I see it, we may have lost Wonks but Gotchee is a more than adequate replacement.  Strikingly similar processing capabilities. #twins

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).



workrider 05 Nov 16 19:45
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.

Fancy a quick Giggs double - 2.20 Naas & 2.40 Cork - Attribution (Henry/BJG) & Alpha Des Obeaux (Mouse/David Mullins)

Tycoon Prince was enter for both races.

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

Its My Turn 1.55. the maiden he ran in last June was some hot race, he should do the business . Deor of Keily's  could be worth a little e/w in the Nov,finally Lagostovegas has been transformed since joining Willie .
Good luck all.

Be JayZus another double header.....

Heavy going IF Naas goes ahead

His Eminence Donnacha will receive his crown today too

Donnacha O’Brien was officially crowned Irish champion Flat jockey for the second time on the final day of the season at Naas.
The defending champion ended with a tally of 111 winners for the campaign over the 2017 champion jockey Colin Keane. It has been a titanic battle between the pair for much of the year before O’Brien pulled clear in the final weeks. O’Brien’s title race victory means he matches the feat of his older brother Joseph, who won back-to-back championships in in 2012 and 2013.
Donnacha O’Brien said: “It’s a relief to win it and to have it over and done. It’s head-frying (going for the jockeys’ championship), and I don’t know how lads like AP (McCoy) and Pat (Smullen) kept going for so many years. It drains you doing it one or two years, so I can only imagine what they went through. “Colin (Keane) is someone I have the utmost respect for, and to ride over 100 winners in a season not riding for dad (Aidan O’Brien) or Joseph is incredible. It’s a true test of how good he is.

Oisin Orr shared the champion apprentice title with Andrew Slattery after dramatically winning the final race of the season aboard Maria Christina at Naas. Slattery had held an advantage of two (43-41) going into today.
