Punchestown Festival 2019

6.05 Goffs Land Rover Bumper - Scalor 12/1 e/way BOG. Unlucky l/t/o where the official explanation was he jinked right and nearly unseated rider. I have watched it 4 times now and he was definitely tripped by the horse behind him. Jockey did wonders staying in the saddle but all chance was gone by the time he recovered. I think the selection would have challenged for the win that day and definitely should have placed. The winner went on to finish 4th in the Aintree festival bumper and I think the selections racecourse experience can be put to good use today against many rivals having their first run.
 
Utterly dominant performance to my eye. Never a semblance of doubt that he’d overhaul the second horse

and a 6yo Irish National winner on his fourth chase start.

Poor old Rich Ricci with the two highest earning racehorses in Ireland this year.

I’ve stayed away from betting since Aintree. Just the one for me tomorrow. Definitely Red at 33s e/w, 3 places. Stuck between him and Snow Falcon, think one of them will mop up third place.

I’ll be back in November, regrouping and seeing were I’ve gone wrong this year. Did well up until around February, gone pear shaped since then.
 
Enjoyed yestrday's racing UDS was awesome but not so hot today overall but the Kemboy V Al Boum Photo should be a cracker

I reckon Clan Des Obeaux is a flash in the pan and the form of Kemboy is no where near as good as Al Boum Photo who might just be a bit special, the best being still to come

Good God. I am in agreement with Tanlic!
 
Delta Work was visually impressive yesterday but I’m not too sure the race took much winning. His two chief market rivals looked non-stayers while Discorama isn’t up to Grade 1 class. At 40+ seconds outside RP standard I’m not convinced the form will amount to much.

He had a tough enough season and it was a pretty good showing in fairness I thought

The Cheltenham race form should really work out so I think this guy will be well above average at least going forward

APT was a bit disappointing - not a stayer on yesterdays showing - maybe he will be a Florida Pearl 3 mile type
 
Well done Team Kemboy!!!! So thrilled for you all. You could not have asked for more.
 
Congratulations to all connections on Kemboy’s win

Looked as if ABP was going to get by coming to 2 out but a poor jump put paid to that

Really chuffed for Archie and Perpetual. What an experience! A superb horse that will be talked about for years.
