The Start of the Flat

[Diamond Geezer]

Prospects for the Curragh tomorrow,, anyone?

Ground heavy. Racing on the stand rail today so high draws favoured in all races.

Thanks for that, DG.
I'll take a chance on Shifting, (7) in the hope he'll be up there early.

Can't see thread for Lincoln?!

I should know but can anyone tell me where you want to be drawn if soft going?

For the record I think the market looks about right, Captain Bertie and Eshtibaak both have strong chances...

The one I like as a sneaky left field choice is Swiftly Done, drawn low, won at Doncaster, goes on soft, and seems to be improving each season. The jockey claiming seven pound could be seen as a positive aswell I suppose??

I can see an old fashioned lincoln in this race with pace either side and splitting and perhaps not coming down the middle.That would be interesting as the far side rarely gets runners,when there was an even split years ago on soft ground the far side would sometimes win there would be nothing in it.

Is this flat season ever going to get under way.

I could do with some decent spring weather and some decent racing.

Seems like the longest winter ever!
