Pro/Am race on the flat over 2m- Hard to imagine how Jetz can be out of the frame, 4th behind Augustin runs in 1st with 2 nto winners in 2nd and 3rd beating 10 runners and 17 runners each in their victories. The fav won a 3m PTP from a horse resoundingly btn nto and this may not be enough of a test for him. 11/4 still available with some books, looks a very good bet EW imo for in form Harrington team.

Ruby said in the examiner he expects Augustin to run well today. If that is so that's a positive towards jetz

Nice to see someone try to pick a winner.
Can't dispute Jetz race working out well and seems a fair price. Thought Donegal Tuesday a fair price also at around 3/1 as well,she hosed up last week albeit a weak race, like mares in form and has her testing ground again. Like to see her a bit stronger in the market(Hourigan) and will wait if that materialises. Good Luck with your picks. |

He was Neill,he seemed to give her a slap in mid air over the last,she was game as well and loves the ground,bit jammy,post usually comes not in time for me in them cases but nice change.
|

By:
Nothing jammy about it for me Pa, she gutted it out. just thought that she had the right man on board to coax it out of her. She was actually nicely on top at the finish, there. Fair play to you, nice win.

backed it myself Pa,read your post and said I'd have a dabble,looked beat between the last two,but Paul is a brilliant jockey and poked her nose when it mattered ,well done mate.

Think he gave her that bit of confidence, got after her without throwing the kitchen sink at her until really needed.

By:
Good stuff WR,me ears would have been burning bigtime if Paul didn't lift her over haha.
Jetz well backed, hope it obliges for OP(who is entitled to discuss an Irish race on the Irish forum even if he is from Mozambique btw  ) |

 .. In bed last 3 days, slipped in shower and hurt my back,pain was unreal last night no sleep,so a winner will help ease the pain.I thought Stewarts was a Geordie |

By:
Another very good Townend ride, sit off strong pace hug the rail win by a length.
|

By:
Ya should invest in a non slip showermat with the winning WR.
 .Paul Townend on arguably the 2nd best horse(Daisys) was in the right place all the time there. |
|
By:
Yes Custom another peach from Paul,think Jody thought he had him covered.
|
|
By:
Should have said getting out of shower Pa,pain still the same inside or out..

Only messin WR,i've a bit of a phobia with dentists as when i was a youngfella they were fairly fond of sticking a pair of pliars into the gob and bursting teeth,avoided them since and had a bad week last week with pain myself,no joke.Back is a funny thing and you should get it checked out.

I know what you mean re dentists ,had route canal treatment for weeks came home made a sandwich and the tooth broke,never again, they all come out now if I'm in pain.Missing going racing most of all.

Horse was a bit keen again for most of the trip (same as LTO) which on this ground is fatal.

By:
Agree Punch,head carriage was awful last 2 f as well,bridle horse,bobs were for the winner.

Was looking forward to her ride on Someday in the festival bumper..Strong booking for the race..

Lads if ye are in cork I can recommend a good friend of mine. She is a top class dentist, very gentle not like the butchers of the 20th century and she is very good looking.
It does help good looks when a dentist is rooting around |

They couldn't raise a leg crossing the line in the bumper at navan, it's when the ground is like that u need a jockey with something between their ears

Sound Macroky, it was in Cork's city hall where it all went wrong, i was never a willing volunteer after,i don't think it would be allowed nowadays. I got a tube of orajel,think it is a clove oil derivative,good tack,it numbed everything,tooth and gum,tis an abcess ya have to watch out for.
Different era now,thinking about that reminded me of the time meself and the brother when we were smallies went for a haircut(Adelaide St.) two ould boys in their 70's did the job,the shop doubled up as a push bike repair outfit and there would be bikes all over the gaff, anyway i got the lesser of the two evils with the brothers, the poor brother got a fairly severe cut on his ear and blood was gushing out(sure i started laughing) but the beauty of it was the ould boy gave me brother a clatter on his good ear and said that's what you get for not being still, that was enough for the brother who exited the premises bawling,me mam went down and had war with him. Anyway different days and mostly in a good way. |

Good story pa lapsy it's good to see humour tho at the time your brother didn't see the funny side.
I had a woman dentist once and my worst experience. She tried to take out a back tooth. She locked on put her knees up against my chest and pulled. Well my jaw went up and down and left to right several times. Eventually the implement came out of my mouth and I said for fks sake I don't know where my jaw is. Next dentist I had was a general anaesthetic I didn't want to know |
