To be fair to Johnny Dineen he is very honest. Not been impressed with his tipping like but he is honest. There were years that Gavin Lynch had a shocker antepost (had his house on Envoi in the Turners) and would then say he’d manage to lay it all off in race … not sure he ever admitted a loss.

He must've been quick to lay it off he only lasted 3 or 4 fences didn't he

We discussed Gordons form prior to the weekend and how he started later.

Yeah I’ve looking at those underperforming Elliott horses with a view to pressing.
American Mike is one than is just staring me down at the moment, there’ll be more…

I'm having the same thoughts about EW multiples on Honeysuckle. She's either gone at the game or 8/1 is the best EW bet out there if her weekend run was just a blip. I'm more than willing to give her the benefit of doubt and that she laughs in everyones face on Irish Champion Hurdle day. After all, she has gone a long way in paying for my daughter's wedding! She owes me nowt. I love her to bits.

2019 hattons grace 160 rpr
2020 hattons grace 158 rpr
2021 hattons grace 160 rpr
2022 hattons grace 158 rpr

has she just run to the level she always runs to on reappearance?

Just that instead of racing bacardys or ronald pump she was racing 6 time grade 1 winner who is superb fresh klassical dream and teahupoo a young improving horse who is unbeaten on soft ground.

Will she beat constitution hill if he gets there fit? Almost certainly not but he might not get there fit or might have an off day and if he does bolt in are there 2 horses that could get her out of the 3?

Skybet have her 5/4 to finish in the 3. I'd rather back that than facile vega for the Supreme or jonbon for the arkle.

Be shite if all this weekends racing is called off.
 
Is Cork under threat also? Haven't seen anything on them.

With the forecast I very much doubt anything will beat the weather. It's the minus daytime temperature that is the big issue. We've got the Football though !

FWIW - Am not too far from track, we had a hard frost last night -5 or -6 and its the same again for next few nights.

Me too. We must be neighbours. Yes, I think Friday's hard frost which will be the 3rd in a row, will kill off the fixture. Can't see it surviving.

That’s a real shame as Fact To File had finally been declared. I’m still holding out he’s going to be near the top of the Mullins bumper pile now he’s unlikely to go hurdling. It’s also a race that Willie has used for future Festival bumper horses.

Agreed. I'm surprised 40s are still available given this and that others have disappointed in this division.

Would you believe the rugby was staring back at me on the TV when I had to quickly decide my username. Walked past the ground a few times, yet to venture n there. Never played the game either.
