Got a word for Custodian at the 6.40 in wexford. Was at 14s down to 6 now.

Bit of a plunge by the looks of it 11/4 on PP now

Anyone know is Barretts known as a gambling stable?

Why was Steps To Freedom moved to Commonstown from Elliott's yard?

I'm only making an assumption that there was a falling out because after the win in the bumper at Aintree Gordon was speaking of how he was excited about next season and thought STF could tun into something a little bit special,i know if i had a horse with plenty of potential i'd be in no rush to remove it from the Elliott yard!

that is not the reason i

If they want to go handicapping on the level then moving Jessie's isn't a bad decision but if they're serious about a novice hurdle campaign, it seems odd to move him from Elliot's. I wouldn't be a big fan of some of the lads riding for Jessie over jumps recently. It's a pity Tommy Treacy doesn't get more opportunities because he's been one of the most underrated riders in this country for the past fifteen years.

dont want to post wat happened but it has nothing 2 do with the horse

My tip is if you're not watching the football/hurling or the tennis, get the special from Busaras to Bellewstown. Rubbish racing, but a lovely spot, a great day out and the best of crack. If you're having a bet, there's a track bias, with low draw numbers favoured in the mile races.

Are u mad??? If I went to Bellewstown I wouldn't been seen til about Tuesday...

I'd be waiting for the July meet at Newmarket next week. Interesting to see if Misty For Me will run in the Falmouth after dotting up at the Curragh last weekend.

2 out3 aint bad and the odds on shot gets beat

I think Glanusk 8.00 Naas is worth a small bet today,finished behind Joe eile and Jambalaya 2 runs back but ran into all sorts of trouble that day and tries blinkers today for the 1st time,i reckon he has the beating of them 2 anyway,haven't looked at it in much depth so just depends what the others are like!
