Punchestown Festival

Ireland's biggest Racing jamboree kicks off next Tuesday and whoever initially priced the Gold Cup up on Betfair (the only firm at present offering odds) made a bit of a rick in offering Quito de la Rocque up at 12/1. I think the price has all gone now and I only managed to get £12 on. He's a horse that is a bit under the radar but has a leading chance if the race is run on it's usual soft ground. His effort in finishing third in the Lexus at Leopardstown on good ground was excellent for a horse with his stayers profile and he reminds me very much of Notre Pere who won the race a couple of years ago as a fresh horse against animals that had run at Cheltenham.

Punchestown Gold Cup:
Quito de la Rocque £12w @ 12/1
