A cracking days racing on Sunday with Group 1 action over in France, and Class 1 racing in Ireland.
Longchamp 12:23
AIR DE VALSE looks to have a strong chance in the opening race of the French Guineas card.
This filly ran many good races last season, especially putting up a good effort in the Prix De l'Abbaye where she finished 6th, 2.25 lengths behind the winner. That is the best form on offer, when you consider, Glass Slippers who finished second, won at the Breeders' Cup in his next race.
Air De Valse's runs this season have progressively got better with every start, but she's probably not ran over her ideal trip of 5f. She doesn't seem to see out a 6f or 5.5f trip as well as she does over the minimum trip, so the drop back in trip should be better for her. She seems to handle any ground, so the fact the ground will probably be soft, shouldn't be an issue, if anything, if she gets an easy lead she could be hard to peg back on soft ground.
Advised: Each Way
Longchamp 3:25
Ralph Beckett was very adamant that LULLABY MOON was a very nice filly, but said that she needs soft/heavy ground if you want to see the best of her. Today, she should get the soft or heavy ground she craves, with a lot of rain due to fall.
She was entered in the English 1000 Guineas, but was withdrawn due to the fast ground, and she has been saved for this race today.
Last year she won a Group 3 at Chantilly, where she did it quite easily in the end, winning by 2 lengths. The 6th placed has since won the next three, including an easy success in a Class 1 Listed race.
The form of her other runs, including the 3rd behind Umm Kulthum is solid form. That horse was 3rd in the Chevely Park Stakes Group 1 last year, behind Alcohol Free, who has since ran well in defeat in the English 1000 Guineas.
I expect the ground to get very testing, especially at the time of the 1000 Guineas, with horses already been racing on the track, and this should suit the selection. Rossa Ryan who has ridden her to two wins said that her turn of foot on soft ground is very good, and that horses will struggle to keep up with that. At the odds, she offers good EW value.
Advised: Each Way
Naas 3:40
The form of his recent runs and his two runs during his juvenile season is enough to think that LOGO HUNTER is capable of winning a Listed sprint. These Listed sprints always look competitive in Ireland, as you have horses who normally compete in Group races, racing in them, but they shoulder high weights. Your usual competitors of Make A Challenge, Urban Beat and Downforce are always ones to take note of, but I think Michael J Browne's progressive and lightly raced 3yo will take the beating, if handling the ground if it gets soft.
On debut he finished behind Aloha Star, that filly has since finished 3rd in a Group 1. On his second start he finished behind Measure Of Magic & Miss Amulet, one is now a 2x Listed Winner and is rated 106, the other is a Group 2 winner and Group 1 placed, 110 rated. In his 3yo campaign so far, he won 2x and been runner-up 2x. The win over Mooneista has been boosted as the runner-up has since won a Listed race, beating some of the horses in today's field. Last time out, Logo Hunter finished behind Measure Of Magic again, which is no disgrace, as he is a progressive sprinter.
As a 3yo, he gets the weight for age allowance, meaning he gets weight all around, 3lb being the lowest and 11lb being the most. My only slight concern is the ground. With four places on offer, I'd side with an EW play (you decide whether you want to play it to win or EW, don't have to follow my strategy).
Naas 4:40
A CASE OF YOU looked to be a sprinter on the up, until he was put in the Guineas trial at Leopardstown, where he was well fancied, but he was too keen and didn't settle. The drop back to 6f is definitely the correct decision, as he looks to have a cracking turn of foot.
The win over Logo Hunter at Dundalk looked easy, as soon as Ronan Whelan pressed the accelerator, he flew home, and that looked to happen with no effort whatsoever. The form of that race has worked out well, as you can see with me tipping Logo Hunter in the previous race.
The soft ground won't be an issue, as he's won on soft before at the Curragh, and Down Royal. I'm hoping he settles better today, and that should be enough for him to run a massive race.
In December 2020 we sadly 
Tonight we have the second leg of the triple crown,
Pimlico is a one-mile dirt oval, The track is known for its exceptionally tight turns and very long stretch run. The stretch measures 1,152 feet from the end of the final turn to the finish line. That’s one of the longest stretch runs in the country, it’s a track that suits speed, more than half the winners at Pimlico this year were in the first 2 places after a quarter of a mile,
This year Bob Baffert won the Kentucky Derby for the 7th time, his previous six winners have seen five go on to win the Preakness, his only Derby winner that didn’t win the Preakness was Authentic last year, Authentic finished 2nd beaten a neck, last years Preakness was run 4 weeks after the Derby instead of the normal 2 weeks due to COVID, which could have gone against Authentic,
It’s hard to see Medina Spirit not winning the Preakness but there is another horse I like as well, the other horse is Midnight Bourbon,
Medina Spirit has good front running pace and front runners have a good record in the Preakness and at Pimlico, Midnight Bourbon is another horse that likes to be up with the pace, he couldn’t get an early lead in the Kentucky Derby because he was bumped early, Midnight Bourbon still ran a creditable 5th even with the early trouble, Bob Bafferts other runner Concert Tour should also be up with the pace but I was disappointed with his last run, his form before that is good enough to win this but I like others,
With the expected fast pace it’s likely we could see a horse coming from behind to grab a place and I like Keepmeinmind for that job
Johnb’s Preakness Stakes top 3 prediction
1st MIDNIGHT BOURBON 9/2
2nd MEDINA SPIRIT 2/1
3rx KEEPMEINMIND 20/1

Well done!
Nice1 Elvis I fancied Sir Mark’s because of the ground and you tipping him definitely made my mind up.

Nap is a non runner ☹️

Hi all
I’ve been tempted by some clues at Wexford today. Denise Foster i.e. Gordon Elliott’s alter ego has 2 runners
1.55 Clondaw Secret, Jordan Gainsfords only ride, we keep getting told what a promising young jockey he is, 11/2
And 3.55 Gold Des Bois, Robbie Powers only ride.
Who knows eh?
Also, I noticed in the 4.25 at the same venue a pretty well fancied Wrong Direction being the only ride of the well respected Denis O Regan.
Finally, in the 3.25 Lord Lariat takes a 12b reduction in his chase Mark to compete in a hurdles race.
BOL
I’ll get my coat!
Embole 4.47

regal pretender 5.17 ew well done all winners yesterday and today
I wish I would have just posted those odds on shot now. 😩
Always makes sense after the event does nt it haha 😂 it is so tormenting which makes us more determined to get one back at the enemy !
True. I looked through the cards last night and did my usual short list, this morning I picked out those that had been supported overnight, but I though if I post these odds on shots people will say WTF.
So I post four others that all lose, yeah I know people a thinking WTF.
Post them up mate does not care a winner is a winner say you give me 3 of them today and dazz had a 6.1 with irish dancer,, well ill take that all day . Ok its not big money but it adds to the playing pot
Yeah that’s what I do get a shortlist up together then try and whittle it down to just a few to make it easier for people to try and follow if they wish but there are usually a few you fancy but don’t put up that win haha . I’ve also taken that approach get my shortlist and see if the market agrees or not in the morning and go with the ones that have moved most favourably but then it’s the enemy giving you this information so I don’t solely go on that just do your own thing and see it through . There is no right or wrong the game can make fools of everyone which is amplified when you put your thoughts out there for public scrutiny haha but we are all trying to win not like people are putting selections up to lose haha just some are better than others . Never mind every day is a clean slate let’s pray for glory 2 Moro ha
Churchill Downs-R6…Savoy. 7/4(** Tyler Gaf on board again and Chad Brown horses as shown earlier love a run or 3 before winning and this race ain’t great)
Haha I literally just bet on that . I did mr humbles as a treble I did lump on the nose so crying a bit now when the second lost haha sometimes you get the bad feelings before it’s even gone off ha never mind good thing when you bet with your own selections you only have your self to blame 😂
I bet June’s Sandra wins now I bet on the fav ha
Yahtzee!!
Keep spitting them out Yankee Doodle man ! 👍
It’s Redcar 2 Moro staring the one and only Franny Norton 😂😂😂
That little boy blue is out again someone on here tipped last week E W and it won at 11.1 its 4.1 for tomorrow

but I’ve it marked down as unlucky last time out??
I’ll watch the replay after USA races 👍
Does your dog do a blue poo 😂
HaHa…but he’s quite the kicky dog!
On a serious note he’s the bet tomorrow as his wee arse is in tatters. Think like me his bums took a pounding over the years? 😉
He’s a boxer (so a fighter) but at near 6 I must have had 3 minimum horror stories about there stomachs but bar his bad bum he seems fantastic?
Few £s tomorrow at the vets that’s for sure! 🙄
Ps:He’s called Blur for Rangers and I’m a Celtic fan…Frickin kid’s!! 😡😉
It was hat or th obvious for a boxer…Tyson!!??
So that’s my life story anyone else 😂😂👍
