Away and Gone!

@KillianM2 U2 at the height of their powers back then!

[Brian McEnery @mceneb71]

@horsevault 10 fallers at the first. Imagine the outcry now 😅

[Brian McEnery @mceneb71]

@TBJ_Racing Keep it but make it a Grade 2, like it originally was. Grade 1 winners have to carry a penalty and that might make it interesting and increase the number of runners.

@itvracing Ask @mickfitzg how himself and Dunwoody sorted out a difference of opinion years ago in the weighing room 😅

[Brian McEnery @mceneb71]

@Snail722717 @JakePriceRacing If he didn’t ride him out he would have been suspended. Race fell apart, no choice.

@patcashhealy Is that the site of the current racecourse Pat? Great photo!

[Brian McEnery @mceneb71]

@DanFriel6 @IrishNHTips Stand corrected👍 Covid kicked in thereafter and he announced a while later

[Brian McEnery @mceneb71]

@horsevault John Francome’s wish hasn’t been granted yet (sort out starts) 😅

[Brian McEnery @mceneb71]

@HawkWing2002 Have a read of the stewards report. Starter basically blaming all the jockeys, and the Irish lads did a runner before they could give out the them! Comical stuff

[Brian McEnery @mceneb71]

@marmobet @Catters61 @sevenbarrows Interesting that his price shortened since Thursday. Would it not have gone the other way if he had fallen?

[Brian McEnery @mceneb71]

@RacingTrends @DavMcQ @PaddyPowerShops Voided if they win 👍

[Brian McEnery @mceneb71]

@jamierkennedy For about 18 months Jordan Speith

[Brian McEnery @mceneb71]

@KingstonPeter85 @FinlayColm @gavreilly Guarantee that some shrewds were on Jim when he was mentioned as a runner a couple of months ago! That money stays in the bag….

[Brian McEnery @mceneb71]

@kevinblake2011 The early days of the final furlong was the peak! Best of luck. You won’t be idle anyway 👍

[Brian McEnery @mceneb71]

@kevinblake2011 Irish National 1997 when Mudahim won beating amble speedy. Loose horse flashed by the line the wrong way as they crossed the line!

[Brian McEnery @mceneb71]

@DanielHussey2 Some going from the three Waterford lads to win this without winning All Ireland. They the only ones to do that since 95 anyway

[Brian McEnery @mceneb71]

@michaeldtoms @JohnnyDineen I was there a few times in the early 90’s and the trains used to stop on race days. Would add to crowd if they did a special with train ticket and a package for the races. The management don’t seem bothered to work to get a crowd!

[Brian McEnery @mceneb71]

@tayz2017 They will lobby Punch to get a G1 2.5m race for next year. Big gap in the race program 😅

[Brian McEnery @mceneb71]

@Handy_Andy96 Add Kauto star to your list. Not sure about France but his first 2m win in England was Tingle Creek. Won a 2m 2F. Novice in Newbury
