I see plenty of opportunities at Tipp today-might give it a good lash-anyone else playing.


I will be getting involved as well. What else is there to do when its chucking it down....

Mundy didnt mention this in his song...
 
Purple is out of a mare who found it hard to win-laid her at 1.95 and might go in again if she gets ridiculously short.
 
Doubled my lay at 1.7 -safe in the knowledge that it was an easy trade then Betfair mobile started to play up.When it came back2.06 was the price -Betfair mobile played up again and next thing I know it that it's in running.I know she went under 1/2 and I spent a moment reflecting on what I could do next week without Galway or Goodwood but thankfully the mares dodgepot genes came good.
 
Learn is the most insane price of the season here-not saying he can't win but 4/9 from evens this morning-no way.
 
Joseph now 4 ahead and gone odds on .. best price on a decent bookie who would take a bet is 4/5. Smullen as big as 7/4. How many would Joseph need to be ahead by before Galway? Weld had mentioned he was looking at a couple for Goodwood...
 
I don't see Joseph as an odds on shot.

He is not getting enough outside rides at present, he needs to be building up a bank of trainers to ride for at Dundalk in the autumn, when the whole thing is likely to be settled one way or the other.
 
He will get plenty of outside rides and there are plenty of maidens and rated races on the program for the Ballydoyle juggernaut... any more suspensions would worry me though.

I agree-I would be a layer at odds on.His priority will be Group 1 races-the jockeys title would be a bonus.

Missed the break by 5 or 6 lengths immediately went evens in running,touched 3s in running but was too good for a very bad field.I reckon none of them will win again this season.
 
5 ahead now.... thought he would have 3 tonight...how the first two year old was 2/1 is spots earlier today I don't know.

If its heavy at Galway I think Benash could run a big race in the hurdle at a huge price. His run on the flat at Bellewstown doesn't look half bad now.
 
The Reek 1/3 in a 45-65 handicap over a mile at Wexford. How anybody could back a 1/3 shot in one of these around this place beggars belief.
 
Elsewhere on the card, did Dragon Khan catch anybody else's eye in the 3yo handicap? Arguably travelled best of all into the race and was given a pretty tender ride by Leigh Roche (didn't go for the stick at all) to keep on nicely for second. One to look out for in a handicap up the Curragh?

Seems to be a bit of money around for Dragon Khan in Down Royal tonight. Haven't had a proper look at the race but will be interesting to see how he goes.
