12/5

Theocritus won at 2/1,Mutakarim a head 4th - frustrating for each way backers at 10/1, the 355 was a muddling race with too many O'Brien and Weld Smullen entries - well guess who won, Weld/Smullen! The pair followed up with Caribbean Sunset at 9/2, HArdasun a non runner and Tian shan unplaced
Longchamp saw Halfway to heaven placed at 24/1 -highlight for the O'brien team.
Haadaaf took advantage of the non runner.
Pams Oak was a faller at 9/2
Again unders was the call in all playoff matches (JUST with Watford v Hull which i resigned to losing but remained at 2-0)

Celtic replicated the 2-0 of previous meetings and the half time/full time came in
Overs came in the Brum game. Chelsea were terrible - I chose the wrong bet for the Fulham /Pompey game (not aftertiming - should have written unders but there you go!) Man Utd got a late goal and with difficulty in scoring I traded out for a loss

IT's a beautiful day and killarney races are on - it's an evening meeting and I may pop down
715
Tiffany diamond runs for Aiden O'Brien
745 - Rose Hip for Smullen. Killarney beauty runs and will be a good tradeable horse to back now and wait for the mug punters who see the "Killarney" in the name at Killarney to trade off. Will probably go off as favourite based on that.

815 - Knowing wink for Weld/Smullen who have done better with their each way horses

I must admit I've been pleased with performance form these Irish combinantions with a lot of suprises like Halfwayto heaven at big odds placing, as well as King of Rome the other day placing in a 6 runner field

Towcester is good in running fodder with that fecking hill at the finish

A quiet day for me -handicaps, maidens, claimers do not agree with me!
