I think we have to hope there are no delays today. We have gaps of 5 10 10 5 5 10 10 5 (minutes) in the opening races and any delay could see them running into one another.

This could be made worse by two weak Irish meetings. I guess we will have to keep our fingers crossed and see what the afternoon brings!

the irish racing yesterday in terms of volume were rubbish. on most races very little that came in, and when it did, it came in real late. not worth the risk in my opinion. i reckon today will be the same,they will have very low volumes that will come in very close to the off; again not worth the risk.

so if you negate the listowel and nass cards, the spacing between the uk cards not to bad. but being a monday i dont expect them to be very good.

An unusual card today. If it was just two UK cards I may have done something else, but the extra races will throw up some additional interest. I'm not expecting any fireworks today, will just try and stay out of trouble.

Very poor volumes.

Not finding it great here, just hoping it improves. Turnover on the Listed race seemed very poor but the odds didn't help.

Naas are doing their best to ruin the UK races.

I sometimes like to trade the Irish wacky races just to make the mainland cards feel better. Or at least I thought so until the 4.15 Newton Abbot, though it came good in the final minute to mop up some damage. Not sure about you chaps, but I find the Irish meetings are like dunking an imitation Rich Tea biscuit...it disintegrates the moment you dip it into the cup and sinks to the bottom. Must be time for a cuppa.

Best race of the day for me in the end, was in the red but then got on the late drift of the 2nd fav and turned a decent green in the end - was much needed as the rest of the day has been rubbish for me.

Like buses, you wait all day for a decent race and you get two within minutes. Found the 16.30 good on the 3rd fav, nice move in then a good late drift as well. Day looks much better all of a sudden :)

I was making and losing a few quid all day then lost about £120 in the last 3 races. Crap day for me :evil:

Looked predictably dire for me so I've been doing other things. Tommorrow should be better though with both cards on RUK and no Irish tripe in between

There was good volume in some of the Naas races today.

I took the day off! looked pretty rubbish from the outset and could not be bother hanging around for 1 or 2 opportunities that may have arose! 6 more days left in the week, so plenty of time to catch up!
