The two runs though on dirt at Oaklawn have been the biggest margin of victory she has won by.



If she hadn't of run on dirt yet I would of left it but 19 not out @ 9/2 you just wouldn't get that on a horse racing over here.

Punchestown 3.40 Voler La Vedette 11/8 and 13/8





“She has done really well during the summer. She will be better for the run but I think she should still go very well. The conditions suit and she’ll give a good account of herself,” Colm Murphy said yesterday.

17:20 Punchestown - Our Victoria. From the top yard of Colin Bowe and will have come on for her run at Castletown-Geoghan just under two weeks ago, plenty of her stablemates are improving for a run in 2010/11.

Best Price 8/1



19:10 Kempton - Achalas. From primarily a jumps stable but ran very well on her debut here just under two weeks ago, likely to go well again and is massively overpriced.

Best Price 66/1

Easy!

glad its over now

17:15 Punchestown - The Fox's Frolic - Been waiting for this horse to run for a while now, he's a multiple winning pointer who generally front runs with todays very good female jockey (Liz Lalor) when racing between the flags. He was switched to race under rules during the summer having been successful at Stradbally in May (front ran again), on his rules debut he was "towards rear, kept on one pace from 4 out" when contesting a 2 1/2m Beginners Chase at Tipperary followed by "always towards rear, tailed off" over 2m 1f at Limerick, before one final run for a h handicap mark "prominent, ridden in 4th before straight, soon no impression and kept on same pace" when stepped up to 2m 6f, the final two occassions he was ridden by Michael Ferris. He returned to the races this Autumn when running the very useful (Grade 3 winner on his day) Gaspar to a length at Rathcannon last month, a race in which Sky's The Limit (former Cheltenham Festival winner and a winner two weekends ago) was fourth. There are very few QR riders races over fences in Ireland and i'm convinced seeing the conditions of the race and the way this horse has been campaigned in the past 6 months that this has been the target for a long time.



Best Price - 8/1 Bet365 (only firm up)

Godolphin hold the aces here with the favourite Psychic Ability who looks a strong favourite with Frankie up however its stablemate Roman Republic looks interesting at around 16/1 each way. The horse looked one to follow over these sort of races when winning a few times for Mark Johnston but went to Godolphin to race in Dubai where its only run it started 5/4 fav but could only finish 3rd. Its two races this year have both been hotly run handicaps and at first glance have been dissapointing, but on both starts Roman Republic was backed in from 12/1 to 15/2fav and 5/1 to 9/2fav. The Godolphin boys obviously believe its a better horse than it has been showing, but today its been given a few months off and comes back off only a 1lb higher mark than winning last season for Johnston. Id have thought it would have been about 8/1 today but at double that price it looks really good value to run a big race.
