Eire Belle to delight the virtual Irish crowd in the 9:24!

No one knows how to party like an Irishman and if Eire Belle delivers this eveing in England the Guinness will be flowing freely! At 11/1 this 2 year old fillie is struggling to find her first win but has been placed on 7 of her 16 runs to date. Has raced on soft twice which is what we have in England tonight and has finished 2nd in both of those races.

Owners big Del didnt get this horse off the back of a truck in Peckham but it could prove to be a shrewd purchase all the same. An each way punt here wise with the possibility of Eire Belle getting her first win on Getminted.

Expect a buzz at the race course in England tonight, Ecstacy is at the track!

Bookies, bookies, bookies, are you BLIND! They have placed Ecstacy at 13/2 in a race on soft going over this distance. Pure madness! Ecstacy has won her last three races on soft and indeed 5 of the last 6 runs on this going. A wonderful virtual horse she has won 20 times out of 66 runs and has been placed on 27 trips out as well. At one stage or another has beaten all the other horses in this field. Perhaps tiredness is an issue, raced on the 5 occasions over the last 8 days but if she can overcome that has to be good value for an each way.

Double W Double, a handful to say and a handful to race against!

Last night I plumped for the 6/1 shot Planet Z to get a place despite being the heaviest horse in the field and in favourable conditions he obliged coming in second. In the 8:24 in England this evening I’m following the same rule and predict ‘Double W Double’ will handle the excessive weight of 121 lbs to do well at the nice odds of 10/1. Few entrants in this race have much experience and being harsh much quality. This boyle1972 horse looks good though winning her last race over fast going in Dubai just a few days ago. Indeed it was over this distance and the trainers seem to have found the right length for her. At these odds worth a flutter for a placed finish.
