Cairnzy walked away with both of his horses hitting the frame on Saturday, but Rubies From Burma was the only selection to return any money as he was advised at an EW price of 7/1.
Unfortunately, I've not been able to watch any racing, so I can't comment on how the races unfolded. Normally, I would watch the replays, but I've had some stuff to deal with, so only really have time for my own selections.

Peaches And Cream 11/2 – Downpatrick 4.05
I am a sucker for a National race, and it's nice that the Irish ones are generally on a Sunday as it finishes the week off nicely for me.
We have some flat racing on the turf, but it's still very new and I think it's quite hard to decipher which horses are ready for their first outings etc, so for the time being I'll be keeping to the jumps meetings, unless I see something catching my attention at a decent price.
For this race, the Ulster National, I've decided to give an old selection another try. I tipped up Peaches And Cream for the main thread, or a Lucky 15 thread, I'm not sure, but either way I did put him up last time out on the website in some type of format. He wasn't fancied in the market, was held up, and was very poor and underwhelming. With what I've just said, you might be questioning what makes him a bet for today. Well, he was destined to win this race last year or go extremely close if he didn't tumble close to home when still going well and having a clear chance of grabbing the victory.
Today, he runs off a 9lb lower mark than last year's attempt, but that is essentially 11lbs as Peaches And Cream gets a 7lb claimer on board, whereas last year he had Connor Stone-Walsh, who claimed 5lbs. This mark makes him ridiculously well-handicapped, and knowing how well Gavin Cromwell is at targeting horses for races, it's hard to imagine that this race hasn't been the plan for some time, given how well he ran in it a year ago.
The ground is perfect for him, the step back up to the marathon trips is a clear plus, and the track seemed to suit him when he was in this last year, so it all boils down to what does he have left in the tank at the age of ten.

2:35 leopardstown- Hazdann 4/1
It’s 13/2 now 😂 shall I just quit 😂
Dancing Gemini was my only winner yesterday at 7/2, was well supported and won well with an SP of 9/4.
Iberian should have also won but for drifting left when hit with the whip would surely have won but I took him ew at 8/1 so at least it was a return. The other 2 were poor.
Alpha Crucis, the horse I put up as a trend picks ran with credit finishing 8th. With a bit more luck he may have hit the frame as he was boxed in . He also would have preferred a bit more juice in the ground.
Well done to all winners yesterday
Onto today and just the 1 pick and I fully agree with Rizz and am on Peaches & Cream who is just too well h’capped and with luck in running should go close
