Fairyhouse - 25/3/08

[WoodyTHFC]

2.45 Considered Tidal Fury but drying ground may be against it so Gemini Lucy 11/2 bet3 bog 10 pts e.w. Won this race last year but since then has been indifferent, jumping problems costly and leading to numerous falls and even has been put over hurdles to get some confidence. However in this handicap it does get weight from Mansony and Schindlers Hunt, the later in particular had a hard race at Chelt. and after a break this one would be a real danger if at her best, likes to get into a rythmm in front and SH could well dispute but if and it is an if, she gets her jumping together on this right handed track that should suit, she can go close. 3.50 Psycho SP 20 pts. Will leave SP as it looks short enough at the moment and there is a chance it could drift a touch, then again a Martin horse like this. Unlucky horse at the momnet, fell when cruising two starts ago and was cruising the whole way in the County, when Carberry finally asked it to go it did pick up and closed quickly and late on the winner, undoubtedly imo given a poor ride and too much to do and I didn't even back it. The danger is if that race left its toll, if it did then there could be trouble but if not then it still looks well handicapped enough and should go very close to winning on recent form.

Re: Fairyhouse - 25/3/08 3.50 Psycho The horse acknowledged as the most unlucky at Cheltenham following a ridiculously calm hold up ride from the jockey. Came with a wet sail at the finish but it was already beaten having to make up so many lengths up the tiring hill. Short price today @ 11/8 but best bet of the day for me.
