Last Minute Lisa could go well in the opener - she was 4th to a couple of nice enough horses for the grade and time of year (both rated in the 70's) last time out at Wolverhampton and whilst she ran badly on her only previous outing here but she seems an improved performer the last twice, the winner of her previous outing is rated 80 (won easily) whilst the Haggas filly that was on debut has since attained a rating of 70 (though has been turned over at odds-on in her last 3 outings in Maidens), negatives are the trainers only had 3 winners in the past 5 seasons in Ireland (better results in the UK) and jockey is 0/4 for the yard (including on this filly at Bellewstown in October). She's 14/1 with Sportingbet.

Cheers Slim - looked at that race to complete an EW Irish Yankee but looked too tough for win only bets so Forecasts/Tricasts the future.

Thought that Fleur De Nuit was interesting if I thought the trainer could get her to the track fit, seems he's only had 2 or 3 horses in recent years and no flat runner at all since 2011 but she was placed in a big fillies handicap at Leopardstown in September 2011 and ran well for a long way having pulled very hard in the September Handicap (possibly didn't stay) whilst she numbers a half length defeat to the useful Address Unknown at the Galway Festival to her name too. Probably one for another day though on her first outing in over 16 months.

The ones I picked out for tonight:

Star Links - dropping in weights - doesn't look like a return to form but interesting jockey up with JP Obrien

Quite fancy Relay but have gone with head and put up Senyuman

Tally Ho Kid - simply because handicap debutant for Tommy Stack

Getzky and Cottesloe for the last in a reverse forecast.
 
Wish I'd done the forecast with relay and sanyuman, what a moron. Still, good win anyway and had small each way stake on relay just in case so happy with that.
 
Look lads some people guess, others know. It's about time a few lads on the forum appreciated what I'm about.
 
Just watched Refuse Colette (Dundalk 20.20) last race as I backed it last time for no good reason and remembered I was mightily upset at the time. Not really ridden and seemed to me the Jockey in the home straight was deliberately manouvering behind other horses to avoid getting a run. Interesting tonight off bottom weight with ten pound claimer on board. It came 9th but finished back of the group only 4 lengths off and jockey virtually stood up last half furlong. It wouldn't surprise me if the price took a tumble before the off.

Absolutely sick seeing Golden Falcon go in tonight.

Stacks of money for him before the off the last night and ran a cracker held up off a moderate gallop. Absolutely friendless this evening and it put me off.
 
SlimChance, you are handicapped to win at Dundalk tonight but do not appear to be fancied, possibly because you are appallingly drawn.

Will you finish in the first three?
 
Yes IMO, particularly given she's raced very keenly in her recent starts and now has the hood applied (it's very good at getting horses to settle).
