      • It’s disappointing to see only 4 places being offered by B365 for the NRNB Irish National market at present, it’s s mind field of a race as Mullins & Elliot enter so many. I think I’ll wait until Monday to see how the markets moving as it tends to have more of an impact on the winning horses unlike the British ‘Nationals’. My choices at present are Measure of my Dreams & Jury Duty.

        • Interesting day’s racing at Fairyhouse today. Some quick thoughts:
          2.05 Free Ranger. Ran much better than finishing position reflected in the Ladbroke and has a leading chance on ground he will relish
          3.15 Mount Hanover Will be his last run over hurdles before going chasing. It has been the plan to come here for a while. Ground much faster than he has run on before but full brother won on good ground so wouldn’t be put off. (Guaranteed to be withdrawn due to ground now)
          3.50 Petit Mouchoir we’ll know within 20 seconds because, surely, he has to make the running this time doesn’t he?
          4.20 Ordinary World (and I realise I sound like the Chairman of the De Bromhead fan club by this point). Obvious stamina doubts but I just don’t see where the pace is going to come from and this horse has been overfaced for three seasons.
          5.00 Total Recall While I must admit to being perplexed by the Mullins jockey bookings here, this horse has the ability, form and stamina to win this.

          • ....Arkwrisht ran a great race in the Irish National last year, was right in it at the final fence when hampered. There will be much worst 66-1 chances running today.

            • Last year's race was run on very heavy ground. This year it will be quite fast and this will be a big help for Whisperinthebreeze who beat Cadmium 10l in February with Jessie saying that the quick ground made all the difference. Decent ew chance at 20/1 or thereabouts.

                You can get 5/1 3 places 1/4 the odds with 365 which seems fair in that race for Petit Mouchoir

                  • The Irish Grand National is a mine field, I’ve opted for Gun Digger & WhisperintheBreeze but based on weight they are carrying. Also got a Lucky 63 including Off You Go, Storyteller, Mormom, Walk To Freedom, Shady Operator & Gardens Of Babylon. Good luck all
