Layed Martello in the first . Gunnery Sargent should enjoy the step up in trip if fit ,BADS is a horse I like very much again and will be all the better at this longer trip,I think he's one to keep on side till beaten.

Tomorrows card is very interesting, Land,and Mega might give Willies runner a fright ,Land was a bit of a thinker on the level but a couple of flights seem to have changed him,Mega was very impressive @ D.R you'd have to say,Willies is a talking horse and cost huge money but has to deliver. D.King, A Toi Phil looks a match in the Drinmore ,many observers seemed massively impressed with Diamond @ Galway,I was not one of them . Phil on the other hand has taken my eye since going fencing,a very willing horse who seems to find when asked hes the one I'll be backing tomorrow . It might be a little on the short side for Diamond anyway.Rest of the card looks extremely tough with JP having plenty involved in the h/caps so I'll leave them to Willie to mark your card.

Was just thinking the same , wonks , even by your lowly standards, that really is awful tripe that you wrote .
Apart from the talking horse garbage , there's no doubting that diamond king was very impressive in Galway. Tomorrow is a different ball game maybe but that's neither here nor there. His performance in Galway was very taking , and I defy anyone to point out anything that didn't impress them on that occasion
The one horse who definitely will not win tomorrow is A Toi Phil, well that's my opinion anyway.

However a puzzle the meeting is tomorrow.Ruby Walsh sitting on his butt while the Drinmore is being ran and Enright riding Alpha des Obeaux is a fair one to fathom.
Report workrider December 3, 2016 7:53 PM GMT
Purpose, it cost 200,000, won a maiden in France ,are you telling me Willie would splash out that kind of money on one if he didn't think it could do well over here,just because its 7.4 on here for £11 don't rule it out ,if it was 1/2 your kind would be talking it to high heaven.
Mince, Diamond if a good horse ,no doubt about it,what he beat at Galway was rubbish compared to what he faces tomorrow , if that's talking rubbish  then I hold my hands up.I said I think it needs further and tomorrow will tell the tail.

Agree with Micer don't think A Toi Phil has any chace tomorrow. The fact Cooper has picked it has reinforced it. Think Anibale Fly could be better than the lot of them but maybe tomorrow will come a bit quick after Navan so won't go near him.

Purpose, because its 15/2 with powers means sfa,lets wait and see what tomorrow brings, Willie your wrong mate, not all his owners have RR big pockets , in fact its a myth, the 4 big players in Irish racing might own a lot of the top horses,but overall its the small man who makes N.H. racing what it is.

Wonks, regarding diamond king, you said he didn't impress you in Galway, we all know he didn't beat anything like the opposition he faces tomorrow.
Regarding the trip being too short, how did you work that one out exactly ?

Suppose the fact they opened it at 6 and are now going 15/2 is a real positive alright.

He's always given me the impression he's a 2ml 6fur horse,have a look at his Punchestown run over 3ml, with 2 to go hes still on the bridle. as I said I'm not getting carried away with his Galway run , he might prove to be the real deal tomorrow,but for me its on the short side for him,that's my opinion and I'll pay up if its wrong...

Handicap hurdle looks too difficult tomorrow. Mick Jazz of Elliott's will travel well and could trade short but certainly won't win.

Vroom Vroom Mag looks the bet of the day. Availed of the prices earlier and might go in again although she is shorter. Has nothing to beat tomorrow.

Diamond Kings best run was his Cheltenham win over 2 mile 5 furlongs.
They then upped him to 3 miles in Punchestown

He certainly has the class to win the Drinmore but he would appear to want further.

Where I would disagree with Workrider is his description of A Toi Phil as a willing partner.
He has plenty of ability but he is liable to do anything,don't forget he cocked his jaw in Clonmel.

Wilddan, can you explain to me why you think diamond king needs further than 2m 4f ?
And even if he did , and there is no evidence to suggest that he will be in any way inconvenienced by this trip, the fact that Don Cossack, No More Heroes and Valseur lido could win this race, well quite clearly, stamina is no negative.
As far as I can see , he clearly didn't stay 3m on his one and only try at the trip , and his best ever run is when he was produced at the last over 2m 5f in Cheltenham.
You know full well that wonks was talking out his bottom, and it's sickening that you didn't say so.

...This PEACE NEWS for HDB (in Cork) should skate in if reputations are anything to go by...

Peace News showed plenty of promise on debut when winning the two mile maiden hurdle at Cork for Henry de Bromhead and Dylan Robinson. Timi Roli made progress from fourth to just shade Peace News at the third last and that order was maintained at the penultimate flight. However, Robinson had plenty of horse under him and he sent the 7/4 favourite for home approaching the last. Timi Roli couldn't go with him but Chirico Vallis (5/2) started to get into full stride on the run-in and stayed on to close to within two and a half lengths of the winner.
Timi Roli (5/2) kept on for third, beaten seven lengths....(wonder does Willie consider this lad as good as his 4 previous winners of this race? - or is the yard not firing yet?).

Henry de Bromhead, in Punchestown, said: "He’s a nice horse. I haven’t seen the race yet. He only came to us a month or six weeks ago and he came with a big reputation. Thankfully he’s someway fulfilled it today. “He did it nicely. He hadn’t blown us away at home but we haven’t had him that long and we’re probably not hard enough on them at home anyway to be blown away. “I’m delighted he’s won and he’s a nice horse. It looked a good maiden hurdle. “Dylan’s quite cool. He keeps me on the edge of my seat now and again. I’ll be interested to take a look at it. Thankfully I’ll know the result when I’m looking at it.”
Dylan Robinson added: “He travelled very nicely and felt like a very good horse. He had loads left in the tank and has plenty of gears.”
The German-bred winner won on the flat at Clairefontaine in France in August last year.
Peace News holds an entry in the Grade One Royal Bond at Fairyhouse in a fortnight.
