Samcro going to be one of this year's talking horses. Looks the real deal at the moment. You'd think it would be the Gigginstown one for the Neptune at the Festival which I see is now called the Ballymore. Best novice out so far.

PA I thought i would Google the meaning of the word Egomaniac here goes...Egomania is also known as an obsessive preoccupation with one's self[1] and applies to someone who follows their own ungoverned impulses and is possessed by delusions of personal greatness and feels a lack of appreciation.[2] Someone suffering from this extreme egocentric focus is an egomaniac. The condition is psychologically abnormal.[1] Any ideas PA

Thomas Weekes comments on NAVAN last Sunday are interesting...
"O'Leary's dominance is criticised in some quarters but the owner is clearly putting bread on many tables. His Gigginstown team scooped all the prizemoney with a 1-2-3-4-5 in Navan's opening maiden hurdle on Sunday, but the owner's outlay at public auctions in Ireland for that quintet of geldings was [u]557,000 Euro".[/u]
While today at Punchestown, as "Gigginstown completed a four-timer with Battleoverdoyen (purchased by O'Leary for GBP235,000 at Cheltenham Horses In Training Sale). The owner's earlier winners today were geldings Daly Tiger, Mengli Khan and Judgement Day which cost a cumulative total of c. 450,000 Euro at public auctions in England, meaning the cost of today's four-timer was 715,000 Euro, minus training fees." - that's 9 horses for about 1.3 Million Euro !

Photographer Pat Healy was taken to hospital following a nasty incident after the line in the opening race at Navan.
Thatsy and Entoucas fought out a thrilling finish to the www.navanracecourse.ie Maiden Hurdle, with the pair coming close together on the run to the line after negotiating the final hurdle.
While Thatsy just edged in front to win, Entoucas appeared to crash through the inside railing just after the post – colliding with the photographer, who was stationed nearby.
He was quickly tended to by medical staff – and while he was reported to be conscious, he was taken to Blanchardstown Hospital by ambulance for further examination, causing a delay to the following ‘Monksfield’ Novice Hurdle.
The doctor on duty at the track, Frank Kenny, said: “He left the course very stable and has injuries to the right side of his chest.”
Entoucas and rider Mark Walsh escaped serious injury, with the jockey reporting his mount had dived at the gap in the railing just after the line.
