    Nice pick with Kemboy to top things off today, couldn’t have had him today, but very nice dinner.

    Not as quick and polished as Protektorat but improving all the time and being a Westerner should be happy on the ground.

    2.05 Hay Lisnagar Oscar 11-2 1pt ew

    Kinda have to back my TTF star horse! I didn’t do so antepost as wasn’t sure he would run considering the ground, but should be fit as he was originally aiming for the Cleeve, and I think he has a bit more class than he gets credit for.

    Pleased with Lisnagar Oscar especially the way he ran on at the end and didn’t look to have a terribly hard race.

    3.35 New Ballinsker 40s 0.5pt ew 6pl

    He might like the ground better here than the Greatwood and the stable are having a good season.

    Meh. Bit disappointed with Al Dancer- he looked outpaced and outjumped from the start; it was a mad gallop but he had run in the Arkle last year and should have coped. Maybe is not quite right.

    Got to be on Lynwood Gold tomorrow, and also Some Neck- back over hurdles maybe a good move as he wasn’t the best fencer at times. Mullins mare should like the trip and ground. Over in France am deserting Feu Follet for a horse whose form I like.

    Good luck in The Pertemps today. Almost added Some Neck myself, but with winners thin on the ground just now, couldn’t go with three. Lynwood Gold a great price for The Final.

    Looks like Lynwood will be in the final after all, good stuff. I thought there were more ahead of him in the weights.

    Got a free bet to use this week so have stuck it on the head bin Breaken tomorrow. I think it was Jack who mentioned him here originally and he has a ridiculous engine. He’s not a bad jumper just insane. No wonder Townend is keeping his feet safely on the ground.

    2.50 Thurles Orion d’Aubrelle 50s 0.5pt ew

    I was wondering where this horse had got to. He’s a nice looking article I had thought was capable of more. Can the Shark repeat the magic on another Mullins reject?

    4.20 Cork Lughnaquilla 66s 0.5pt ew

    She was disappointing last year but a fine big filly, hopefully grown into her strength a bit more this year.

    Put her head up and didn’t want to know so will leave her alone for now.

    Hurrah El Barra won so I can stop backing him now ;-) . He seemed to settle and get into a much nicer rhythm today.

    Thought Brave Way was going to run on into a place at one point but she couldn’t or wouldn’t go with them. I should’ve listened to the winning trainer!

    Some good horses in the next including the nice looking Gentlemansgame but I’m going with the sturdy and sensible Power of Pause.

    Power of Pause rather unlucky as I thought he was going well when brought down. I’ll watch out for him at Punchestown.
    Lots to get stuck into today.
    Bentham goes well fresh and should like this ground
    Busselton didn’t have the best luck at Cheltenham. Teahupoo looks like a good horse but stable not in the best form. I’ve backed my selection with boylesports as the “free bet if 2nd to SP fav” could come in handy
    Sickened Lynwood Gold didn’t make it to the Pertemps final. Short enough today but can’t desert him now. The stable sounded reasonably positive about Klassy Kay so tried her ew, again with boylesports.
    Got a soft spot for little Stormy Ireland who has come home so backed her win only.
    Easy Game finally gets his ground today so might get back to winning ways though the fav is a tough opponent.
    Dorking Cock looked promising last time so have had ews on him and the Harrington pair of Rapid Response, a lovely big mare and Whisperinthebreeze who looked a good horse before injury. The stable is hitting form in both codes after an indifferent NH season.
