Took a couple of hefty bets there in both shops in Lurgan for:

Catherines Verse in the 3.20, it was 3/1

Keep an eye out for it...

Any fancies for today? Will probably back Powerstation in 3.10 fairyhouse...run a good race behind big bucks & punchestowns in world hurdle. Maybe Aitmatov for the forecast

Notre Pere as expected is out of the national, this means that all the weights have gone up by 7 lbs, make sure to look at the long handicap for those horse who were previously out of the weights, but now brought in.

eg. Newbay Prop was to race off 9-10 (which is minimum racing weight) whereas in the long handicap he was only 9-8. With the addition of 7lbs onto the 9-8 he now races off 10-1.

Or just stick a pin in it

Both Boyles and PP are going first five a place and gtd odds

Full card, with the long handicap at the bottom

Fair play to you, I had church island on the short list but didn't go with him.

Hardy · April 13, 2009, 05:20:05 PM

Happy with that. Got him at 60 on Betfair and 10 for the place. Largely down to bcarrier's stats - thanks BC. Church Island ran a hell of a race OK.
