Tuesday Double...


Fairyhouse 15:50 - Psycho
2m, Handicap Hurdle - Yielding

Tony Martins progressive Gelding Psycho was some peoples idea of the "Irish Banker" of the Cheltenham Festival and barring a 50/1 shock it may well have been. Psycho finished 2nd to Silver Jaro in the County Hurdle and sets the standard in today's handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse. Looking for some quick compensation The Analyst cant see past the selection who should win easily if not hampered by the laid back Davey Russell and a "Mossbank" style ride.
UP 13/8f

"Who should win easily if not hampered by the laid back Davey Russell and a "Mossbank" style ride" Well I will let you make your own minds up, although it did look like some of the spark was missing after a hard race at the festival. Psycho ran on too late to finish a well beaten 8th, dissapointing show.

Fontwell 15:55 - Burren Legend
2m 6f, Class 3 Novices' Chase - Soft, Good to Soft

Burren Legend is as consistent as they come and is guaranteed to run his race when many of his rivals have several question marks against their form. With the Paul Nicholl's trained Robin De Sherwood (Formerly Tipped) heading the market, today's selection will be a nice price and looks the one to be on with ground and trip ideal.
WON 6/5f

A dissapointing SP for a horse that was forecast to go off around the 4/1 mark. However 2 non-runners and little support for Robin De Sherwood meant that our selection was the one to be on. Jumping won the day as Burren Legend, out jumped and out stayed his rivals to score easily.
