      I just cashed out for a 25% loss.

          He made a mistake at the first bank and looked uncomfortable thereafter. Wouldn't be surprised if he is not right cause that was too bad to be true

          • Josie's Orders 8/1 with WH?

            Quite a distance to make up on last years run but he's not out of it is he?




            and at double the price Fact Of The Matter that beat him?

            • Instantly cashed out, I can’t see any positives from that run. Looked like he hated every second of it !

                  They were all saying that about COC on here last year, and look what happened to that

                    Nothing is bomb proof in a cross country chase.

                        Did the same. He never went a yard. I’ll be trying to take on Tiger on the day by the looks of it.

                        • Nearly went in on Ballycasey for this, and just watched the replay from today, kinda glad it's one I didn't bother doing, though would still like a Tiger Roll alternative, you know, just in case the unthinkable happens!!!

                            Auvergnat does hold Josies Orders pretty well on their last 3 runs, and JO looks to be a solid player still.... so perhaps one of those?

                              Head gear the key for auvergnat. look at his run last time out. Travelled beautifully and hosed up in a very competative field. He'd been getting too far back in this previously, but they seem to have found the key to him now so will be interesting to see How he goes. As he's in rude form and coming in to his prime.



                              “He'll have a penalty for the La Touche now anyway!” said trainer Enda Bolger.

                              “He travelled so sweet. Last week we put blinkers on him because he ran in a couple of hurdle races and ran terrible lazy.

                              “He was on fire everywhere today. Even though Donie (McInerney) lost his whip on the run-in he didn't need it.

                              “It's a pleasant surprise but he was always showing that there was one of those type of races in him.

                              “He'll probably go to the cross-country in Cheltenham and we'll see after that.

                              “This is where we want to be and it goes to show how good those La Touche races can be as well.

                              “Today is different and it will be well celebrated tonight.”



                              ******
                              Josies had a poor prep last year coming into this after along lay off. You can't discount him around the banks. As we've see today with ballycasey. Experiance in these races is key. They made more use of him today with the blinkers on.
                              And we all know he stays all day round there.


                              After josies orders win today

                              Bolger said:- “You probably know where we are heading! He stays well and sees it out, and we’ll try and keep him in one piece now for March.

                              “They weren’t bad horses in it this year, it was a good test and the timing is just right.

                              “His ears were pricked and that’s why those things (blinkers) are on him. I’m chuffed with that, and it’s poignant that it was in the race for my old boss (P P Hogan).

                              “Hopefully Auvergnat will go to Cheltenham as well. We were just dodging the ground with him, and he might have a prep run somewhere over hurdles.”
