With two meetings called off today because of the weather, I’m not having a bet.  Southwell  has racing on the all weather, but nothing of too much interest there.

Some decent horses racing in Ireland, it would be good to see Faugheen win again today 2:30 Leopardstown, he is just way too short to back him. It looks a formality for him to win and enhance his chances for the Champion hurdle next March at Cheltenham.

Jockey:

One rider I have taken note of recently riding on the flat, is apprentice Rossa Ryan, he rode 2 winners yesterday.  He still claims 7lb , but that won’t be for long, as this young lad is excellent value for his claim, he could well make the grade, if he manages to keep his weight in check, as he looks quite tall and is still very young.
