National Hunt Racing > Sunday March 9th

Naas 5:00 - Woodlands Park 100 Club Leinster National Handicap Chase(Grade B) 3m I am not ultra-confident about anything in this race to be honest but I think the Willie Mullins trained Up The Beat deserves a small bet at the prices as 10/1 is far too big if he comes back to anywhere near his best form. Paul Townend has won 8 of his last 20 rides here at Gowran Park for the champion trainer and if Ruby was on this horse I reckon it would be a lot shorter. This gelding is still very lightly raced for a 9 year old having only had 10 career runs so there is room for improvement. He went off a fancied 8/1 chance for the Kim Muir at Cheltenham in 2012 and he ran a creditable 4th so if he can bring that form to the table tomorrow he will look a big price.

Re: National Hunt Racing > Sunday March 9th 3.00 Naas Quickpick Vic 15/8 Paddy Power BOG Quickpick Vic won the bumper on this card a year ago in a canter. Lto he was 4th to Vautour in the Deloitte at Leopardstown and over Christmas won his maiden hurdle at Leopardstown beating Stuccodore by almost 10 lengths. Dropped in class here and should win. 10 Points win Quickpick Vic 15/8 Paddy Power BOG 3.30 Naas Bright New Dawn 5/6 Paddy Power BOG Although not as good as he promised to be, Bright New Dawn won a better race than this at Navan lto over 2m1f beating Mallowney well. It is an extra 4f here but has won over the distance. With his stable in great form he should win bar a fall. 10 Points win Bright New Dawn 5/6 Paddy Power BOG
