I'd hoped to play my joker double the odds card in one of The Shergar Cup races, but alas nothing took my fancy. The downpour at Saratoga earlier may help Nations Pride (won on soft)
Shergar cup always an odd one for me as watching this was the last time i spent with my dad before he died a few years back. He was a lovely, imperfect, larger than life fellow with a horrible lung disease.
None of us kids here and I guess we all know there is time before we lose some-one we love greatly and time after. They are not the same.
On a poor run at the moment and, for whatever reason, I’m finding it hard to select a nap today. After much deliberation (about two minutes) I’m going for Dark Swansong in the 17.15 at Haydock.
A Peculiar attack by Coolmore on the Curragh today.
Arguably the best bred 2yo Filly on the Planet who is FS to 3 Classic Winners is called Delightful which I find a depressing name and runs in the 14.05.
In that Race Ryan Moore has chosen to ride a Horse called Useless.
The best bet in that Race may be the Coolmore Horse sent to JP Murtagh called Lake Ilawarra.
My nap has to be Cairo in the 14.40. Curragh.
I have napped him twice only to be a NR and did not realise in time to procure a Substitute.
Probably the same will happen tomorrow but Cairo. 14.40. Curragh. That's my nap
