Everything I said about Fallon in this thread a few pages ago I take back now...He's committed the ultimate sin today and been outdone by powder puff Hills in a finish...I can't get my breath!

Quins with a 14 point start look tempting, players back from injury, Wigan resting players. Looks good to me!

Fallon done by Hills in a finish and McCoy outridden by the ultra-strong Alex Smith-Maxwell (niece of the immensely strong Angela Rucker ) - has the world gone mad?

Would save the money Mwildcats - I could stop trains at the moment

As for the favourite in the race - taking 4/1 about hold-up horses in 21 runner 2m Northumberland Plates is something I'll pass on. At the prices the two I mentioned earlier and then Becausewecan if he can bounce back as a front-runner in what is traditionally a good race for them strike me as being pretty decent prices.

Mugs treble for me. Recharge. Remember When. Profound Beauty.
Heavy double on Recharge and Profound Beauty. Remember When had a hard race 3 weeks ago, and is still a maiden.

Curragh others.

Puttore 1.15
Drumbeg Dawn 2.55
Master of Hounds 3.30
Spinning Wings 4.30

Racing Post prices are a bit cock-eyed on some of those four.


Just Recharge now! 4/5 yes but quoting Prendegast in todays RP "He's going back to a mile and a quarter following his win over a mile in a listed race at Leopardstown, and I think the trip will suit. He's in good shape and should be hard to beat"

Thats positive enough for me.

Dermot Weld is unsure if Profound Beauty will be tip-top on this fast ground, but then again so are a lot of the other trainers.

Will this do, my fancy too

RAJIK (16/1) who never really got going in the race and looked to not stay the trip in the Ascot Stakes last week. Rajik has won over 1 mile 4 furlongs and 2 miles which should ensure that he has no problem as he has that little bit of speed that may be required in the last few furlongs here; should the pace slow up inside the last mile. Connections are very happy with the horse and this was always going to be the target after Royal Ascot with the suspicion that he may not stay that trip. Only had a few runs since a lengthy break and is now in peak condition for this race. Big e/w bet.

Good Luck.

I see Pricewise has also put this up as one of his two in the race. 14's and 12's from 16's now.

Had a tip from someone for a newcomer at the Curragh, Tashqeel. Prendegast horse I think. Gallop reports are that he is on fire and can't wait to get onto the racecourse.

Racing Post forecast was 3/1 ... currently trading at around Evens and looks like the only one for money so far in the race.

Re: Even more betting here : Sat Jun 26, 2010 12:11 pm  

Early doors this morning it was 7/2 best, and is now evens in most places. Word has spread like wildfire. I've got a hundred quid on Recharge and that boy is my get-out-of-jail-free-card

Re: Even more betting here : Sat Jun 26, 2010 12:22 pm  

Was given Tashqeel a month or so back by a good friend over the water - not been told to back it today so assume it's likely to come on for the run, normally a hot race though.
