Few in Ireland today.

Doubles, treble of first 3 and acca

Leopardstown 2.25 Dubai Prince @ 4/7

Galway 3.05 Apt Manor @ 4/6
Galway4.05 Donnas Palm @ 1/1
Galway 4.35 Berties Dream @ 11/4 - single as well

Galway 3.35 One Cool Cookie 16/1 E/W

Just missed out on 20/1 which would of been very nice, not been over hurdles for awhile but has been a very good chaser on its day running to 148 in March this year.

Leicester 2:00

Silbury looks a potential improver for Roger Charlton. Three runs followed by a fair handicap run where she kept on to finish 5th pver 6f. Upped to 7f today, she looks a nice price in the first division of the nursery. Wanted to see what Charlton had to say and his website gave this..
"Silbury runs in the 2.00 pm at Leicester today and she's our only runner. She steps up in trip to 7f which should suit her as long as she settles, but the heavy ground is likely to be against her."

Now the heavy ground is his only issue but I would have thought he would have pulled her out had it been that big a concern (three non runners already in the race) especially with her been his only runner today.

Im tempted by the 8/1 this morning, but would have staked a little more had Charlton been a bit more enthusiastic.

Done Famous Name in the 2nd to last at Leopardstown @ evens should have too much for these.

Also a little poke on John Oxx's Annacurra in the first there just noticed it had taken a few bets and bet365 had cut it from 20/1 to 14/1 so had a go @ 149/1 and 99/1 on betfair might try a little back and lay

Could've had a field day in Ireland today, some decent racing at Leopardstown and Galway. Plenty of 'good things' going in as well.

Bellamy 8/1 first goal tonight or 66/1 for a hat trick!! If he plays may be worth a tickle....

I'd snap 8/1 up if I was you, best I could find was 11/2 or 6/1.

Great day in Ireland how Famous Name was let to go off @ 11/8 I will never know.

Was going to hammer into it, but the drift on Betfair put me off

Tomorrow, was going to put Sea Moon 2:30 Yarm as the bet of the year at the 10/11 that was the forecast price on Sporting Life. It was very highly touted on his debut where Ryan Moore shall we say gave it an introduction in only failing to get up. It will have learnt loads from that and tomorrow I cant see any dangers, sadly Betfair trading around the 1/3 mark so SL well off the mark. Will have to double it with Franki J in the race after at around 2/1 hopefully. Asbsolutely trotted up last time out and one to keep an eye on to see if it runs up a sequence.

What did it hit on betfair?
Drifted to 2.9 pre race, when market was 5/4, settled around the 2.6 mark at the off. Didnt update in running constantly but it did drift to around 3.5 during the race too.

Blimey

Smullen didn't even use the whip

7.40 Wimbledon

Baltylum Houdini has a perfect draw in Tr6 and although Tr1 (Blonde Fletch) will be strong at the finish hopefully a good start and a bit of crowding inside and he will collect at a very tempting 5/1 with Corals.


Dinner Laura 7/1 with Hills in the 9.10 and Platinum Formaly at 5/2 in the 8.50 are also worth a small investment.

Wagner to win x factor........no wait he is 125/! Atm & I have just seen.there is another Facebook campaign running with people making multiple votes to try & stick it up cowell ok its highly unlikely but could they do it again???? Worth a small punt I would say. Q him going out Sunday

Could of been a very nice return but for Maggie
