Err…given the fact that his best result over hurdles was right handed I thought it wouldn’t be a problem! Beginners chases hey. I’ve backed Litterale Ci in the past but you wouldn’t have given fourpence for her chances most of that race.
The Mighty Don jumped quite well…one for a few bob up in trip.
Moonlighter quite exuberant and having fun before his mistake.
Not a bad little race for future reference.

GAG, L’air Du Vent is of certain interest given his PTP form….nothing spectacular in the race, just a worry there are a few much more battle hardened!

Hindsight is 20/20 so make the most of it!

You were right though I missed the race.
2.35 Al Dancer evs 1 pt win

[greenasgrass]

Plenty to work on with both Al Dancer and Getaway Trump I thought. Dunno about Al Dancer. He’s a bit giraffe- like and I don’t know if he’ll ever whip over his fences quickly. Oh well. Early days.

3.45 Rockpoint 12-1 0.5pt ew

Lack of experience will probably tell and he’s not consistent but he does look like a big chaser and the wind op may help him. Got the right man on top too.

[greenasgrass]

Rockpoint just too novicey and not the engine to make up for it. I was cheering for little Wholestone in the end but the winner deserved it.

Moonee Valley Gold Cup
Downdraft 7/2 1pt win

Trip maybe just a bit sharp and Hunting Horn too good.

4.55 Dead Right 4-1 1pt win
Not convinced Slate House wants this ground

[greenasgrass]

Ok so I was wrong about Slate House! He jumped much much better than last year.

Dead Right all wrong.

A couple of Mullins hurdlers for tomorrow

Galway
1.05 Kalanisi Og 2-1 1pt win
3.25 Quartz du Rheu 13-8 1pt win

Former has course form and hopefully won’t mind ground
Latter came up the hill at Downpatrick very nicely and looked a picture that day. He’s not overly big but got his head down and motored after the last very well.

[greenasgrass]

Looking through the cards there is stacks of good racing today.
I’ve added two more- Mullins’ maiden hurdler at Wexford- a Shantou getting mud and a longer trip; and Tizzard’s ex next big thing who had a NH chase entry at Cheltenham at one point before the wheels came off

12.50 Wex Jazzaway 7/2 1pt win
2.45 White Moon Win 3-1 1pt win
