jtw1 Posted January 23, 2009 Share Posted January 23, 2009 Re: Fairyhouse - 23 Jan 09 2.05 - A grade chase over 17f and one that catches the eye at a nice price is SOUTHERN VIC . This one time Grade 1 winner missed the whole of last season and so far this season has had 2 runs [ well beaten ] over hurdles and LTO unseated his jockey at the CANAL TURN in the Becher Chase. I'm assuming that the first 2 runs were aimed at getting some racecourse fitness back and the yard still has the opinion that a decent win could still be had if the conditions are right and i think they could be today . This one can't get the ground heavy enough for it and it has that today. Although more successful at longer distances it's last 2 wins were over 16+17 f. The most eyecatching stat is the booking of Ruby Walsh who has a record of - 1 , 5 , 1 , 1 , 1 , 5 , 2 , 5 , f , 6 who riding this one. If Ruby can dictate things from the front then it could take a bit of catching and the 14/1 on offer could be worth a small investment.
