    1.25 The Curragh COLOUR SERGEANT WIN
    Is coming out of stall 5,
    Whilst he has a string of 2,s in his form his second to Thunder Moon has to be the gold standard in this huge field maiden. Keane and Lyons relish battling with Ballydoyle and they can take this race for the second year on the trot.
    Somehow Van Gogh has attained Stall one and this is seen as a penalty kick for him by all and sundry. Clearly though he has not been straight forward.
    2.30
    5f race
    Another big Field cutting up rough
    Ardhoomey is now top weight and Sam Ewing takes off a valuable 7lbs the horse has soft ground winning form and has gone down in the weights Each way
    Royal Canford and Blairmaine for the combination tricast/forecast
    4.15 Sycamore Lodge Ireland
    Ebendi could well shake this race up. Dermot Weld’s string are in fine form and this Aga Khan horse has a chance here.

    Pugin was beaten by Ebendi before going on to win and then losing to Efferknock fizz (last on Friday at Dundalk)in a heavy ground race. Order of Australia has french and Irish Derby form and is rated a formality here by some.
    I’ve no strong feel about this race and its level of intensity therefore it is a Watching brief

    Ebendi 2nd @12/1 Colour Sergeant 2nd @ 7/2

    EBENDI and COLOUR SERGEANT both ran very well in second place at the Curragh and were beaten by better horses.
    Both horses should go into trackers for future reference as they are above average

    I got the handicap wrong and the winner completed a six timer. Blairmaine ran excellently for third place for the second race in a row.
    Beckwith Place ran very well for second place and should be noted when next out.

    KILLULTAGH BELLA 1.45 Rosscommon
    Is taken to show improvement from a disappointing first show when only sixth. Hood is on and better ground is expected to bring a win here.
    Unplaced
    An inauspicious start to the week.
    Lusis Naturea
    Has been running really well and while without a win in over a year has played some excellent supporting roles behind British Art, Mig des tallons and Jerdame recently.
    Lusis Naturea is taken to resume the winning thread in Rosscommo’s 2.15 in the hands of Rachel Blackmore.

    This looks an intriguing contest with several holding strong claims.
    The one that gets my vote is
    CAN you Believe It win who can put course and distance win form last year to good use.
    Small each way on HIHA defying an 887 day absence to grab a place off an old winning mark of 80.

    Final NH play for today.
    Its the flat race at Rosscommom 4.15
    Not the usual big price horse nor a safe bet.
    Much depends on how forward Gordon Elliott and Willie Mullins yard are with their Bumper squad today.
    Velvet Elvis holds fresh start on thier Punchestown meeting and won his Point to point maiden by a good ten lengths. it all depends on if he can repeat the feat in much better company and how strong the other debutants are.
    VELVET ELVIS Win

    Sigh of relief there for streets of doyden Sam. Think we both were on at listowel when it was NR in the end after being punted. Not much of a price today but a nice winner. Managed to match it at 12s in play so a decent win.

    Indeed Sam, as you know when your playing the bigger price horses they ain’t going to win every other race. Much more fun and profitable than backing at odds on though.

    Keep the faith

    Will do mate.
    Last race
    Zebulon returns to see if he can repeat his course and distance win. Should go close. Two more to go with him in a small combination tricast are Refuge and anna Maria. Mick Easteby and Richard Fahey train these two.


    ANNA MARA AND REFUGE both warrant small win sngles too.

    Not a good day is an understatement.
    Some classic errors in judgement.
    Back on the horse in due course.
