Marshalled 16.35 Clonmel 1 Pt Win @ 9\4 (bog) 4/1, excellent 8½ lengths third of 12 to Flynsini in handicap chase at Navan (24f, heavy) 34 days ago, possible he'd of finished closer but for a late error.

Just to let you know even though the SR for GB this year is just over 40% and 38.9% overall I have gone on a run of 15 consecutive losses. 1st @ 11\4 & NR today Dancing King 17.45 Kempton 1 Pt Win @ Evens (bog) Gelded and much improved on return when wide-margin winner of 1m4f handicap at Wolverhampton 9 days ago. Should take plenty of beating turned out under a 6 lb penalty. Calthor 14.25 Wexford 1 Pt Win @ 6\4 (bog) Encouraging Galway debut hurdling fourth but hasn't gone on since over fences, seventh of 14 in novice chase (9/2) at Gowran (16f) 41 days ago. Back over hurdles now and rates the form pick. MCLARKE 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This longer trip will suit and she's got leading claims. Low Lie the Fields 17.15 Thurles 1 Pt Win @ 5\4 (bog) Progressive hurdler who arrives on a hat-trick after stylish wins at Limerick and Punchestown (20f). Has more to offer now upped further in trip so another bold showing is very much on the cards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can go one better now. Daly Tiger 15.55 Navan 1 Pt WIn @ 13\8 (bog) Very smart chaser. 2 wins from 4 runs this season. 7/4, 11 lengths second of 4 to Cilaos Emery in Newlands Chase at Naas (16f, soft) 13 days ago. Obvious claims. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
