Very little forecast Q. The most reliable website we have is giving 2.5mm on Thursday morning. That’s the only shower due for the next few days, I’d be shocked if the ground wasn’t as it.
 
There’s a band of rain coming Boxing Day
If it’s not as bad then kempton won’t get much at all
But if it’s heavier then Ireland will get it earlier in the day
So we’ll see how much we get
 
If Lobos is right, my AP won’t be in the best shape. Obvs have Fakir covered for the Arkle and in some multi, but Laurina is in better mults and I want Samcro going JLT...and Laurina is a bigger threat in that than Fakir. So I wan Laurina to win and go Arkle.

...which I think she will.
 
Snap. I really think Laurina wins tomorrow and then bar unusually quick ground in March she goes off a short priced favourite for this

I'm sorry to say that you will definitely be disappointed. If you have time, correct it. Fakir will win. No doubt.
 
Think the odds on the race tomorrow doesn't reflect their chances and would give notebook a huge chance even giving the weight away.

Agree. Notebook would be the one I fear tomorrow.
 
There’s always doubt, particularly jumping over fences, but doesn’t stop us searching for the winning selection, and the reasons why our choice is a bigger better price than its chance appears to be. :)
 
Very much would like Laurina to beat Fakir D'oudaries today, ideally easily :p

How would rain help Laurina ??? Fakir needs soft too

Laurina needs the rain to come to make it more of a test. As it stands it is probably the quickest ground she has encountered?

As predicted, such a game game horse which will stand Notebook in very good stead. Laurina needs further..
 
don't think distance would have mattered. she didn't go a yard after hitting the first. jumping was very poor. will be shocked if she hasn't picked up a knock there
