8 Loosen My Load (Hde Bromhead) – AELynch … 11,01

I know Loosen My Load has plenty of fans on here. This should be a good test of his ability going up against the useful Foster’s Cross who won easily at Navan last weekend. I was quite impressed with LML at Listowel though and the track at Limerick Junction is similar in configuration. If he’s to be a serious player in novice events this season he’d want to be beating Foster’s Cross who isn’t the most straightforward. Turf War is a decent horse too but I suspect the ground will be against him.

What’s the ground because Turf War would want it as quick as possible?

I like Loosen My Load but if they went a decent pace on quick ground I suspect Turf War may have too much pace for him.
