The Nags Head - Horse pick thread

[jocky king]

Horse Racing continues in Ireland but not open to public , Bookmakers and  catering services . Only one groom per horse allowed , one owner per horse allowed ( no syndicate group allowed ) that is  up to 29 th March . Will be strange for a racing behind the closed doors . Navan Race is on today .

Only for WorldPunter winner , we had a terrible day . None of us had any horses placed . Well done WorldPunter with his 5/2 winner and put  himself to a big 76 point on top ,

Happy St Patrick’s Day 

To all here in this thread ...( all present & absentee) 

Seems strange that there’s no parade on any city of Ireland and London .

I noticed on racing post just now , almost all British racing is abandoned except possibly Southwell .  Thurles (County Tipperary) racing is on ( might be a change of mind , tomorrow) . So I will wait tomorrow before picking out my horses .  Just sharing my thoughts to all of you here ,  be safe lads .

13 - 40 ---- Thurles ---- Ruinous

14 - 10 ---- Thurles ---- Moyhenna

Good luck all

Jockey King docked 5 points today because of home town advantage

Any Irish radio station that broadcasts races

JETZ flies in for me by 3 lengths , at least some aeroplanes are landing  

[worldpunter]

A good winner , sigram ,and by a wide margin . Good pick  

[jocky king]

Apologies for delay , No excuse with the Coronavirus saga .. 

Very well done to two winners last Saturday, WorldPunter with Jetz 3/1 and Sigram with Zero 3/1 , Both and Chang1974 had their horse comes 2 nd . There will be no Irish Racing in a couple weeks , Taoiseach Leo decided to partly give Ireland a lockdown . So I think , we will wait til the racing returns and give the league an extension to end of May or June or whenever the racing comes back ... Stay Safe lads .

The Irish lock down began last night at 12 ,  what a worst time on Telly without any live sports including Horse Racing , Rugby Union , Football , Snooker , Hurling  plus whatever you like .  Netflix is the only option I have to use to kill the time . Stay safe lads , we will be back , fuck the virus .

Hong Kong still racing. No spectators allowed.

Sha Tin tomorrow ... Sunday.5h Apr  I think 10 races.  I can watch on Racing Uk.

HKJC show the races on their website but not live. Avoid the results and its as good as live.

Hint ... see 365 and Racing UK for runners.
