Horse Racing

[Eggs]

….a horse I mentioned for Friday’s Martin Pipe, Zanndabad, hasn’t been declared. No bother, with NRNB you get you stake back.

Hopefully the horse is fine, he’s one to watch if declared at Aintree or Punchestown.

King Rasko Grey also came from the Costelloes. A 225000 purchase!

Looks like the bookies had a good day today

Another good day for me.

A 1st, 2nd and 50/1 place.

Lovely stuff

A lot harder today but had the winner of that last race combined with Jingko Blue and a place for a nice little Yankee return.

Had Jazzy Matty in the Grand Annual lose by a nose.

Not a sausage in the first two days. Can only get better right?

Been looking at tomorrow's runners - can see it being a good day for Gordon Elliott (he does have 18 entries though).

Up to my usual standard of tipping

…..had a nice 165-1 double today and backed Martartor at 40-1 (won 66-1 ) and Kitzbuhel at 25s. A few decent placed returns.

….have struggled to find multiples in recent years but cleaned up on singles, managed to find very decent returns on multiples this time which is making a difference.

Decent yesterday, had a couple of.places one at 50's. Had 2 winners including Mourne Rambler at the end. Normally back that Martator but price of 66 put me off, absolutely gutted.

…..don’t be put off by big prices at this meeting I backed Martator last week at 40-1, he wins at 66s

I worked at aintree once and someone called and asked how the going was and I said sound mate how's it there?

……Chosen Comrade expected to outrun her 100-1 odds in the first. Jockey Sam Ewing broke his collar bone yesterday but they’re happy with the replacement rider.

Some mush called Nico de Boinville is in trouble for allegedly using racist language toward an Irish jockey.

He might want to make himself scarce at Cheltenham this week then.

Hipop De Loire ( Willie Mullins and Harry Cobden ) looks interesting at 33/1 in the Albert Bartlett Novices' Hurdle over three miles at 3:20. 3rd in last year's Doncaster Cup, and 5th and 6th in the last two Ebor handicaps at York. He won a maiden hurdle easily at the 2025 Galway Festival over two and three quarter miles.
There can't be many nine-year-olds who have won novice races at the Cheltenham Festival though.
