The Curragh on Sunday sees some fairly good racing and it kicks off with the Paddy Energy From The Horse’s Mouth Podcast handicap. I’ve gone for a British-trained horse in Arabic Legend. He carries prime weight however this horse ran okay in that Lingfield Derby trial, ending 13 lengths again, however I don’t assume that tells the entire story.
He’s a greater horse over a shorter journey and drops again to 1m1f right here on Good floor. Coach Karl Burke had a very good Royal Ascot and I feel this horse is a really reside contender on this race. He completed second to Arabian Crown final 12 months, that’s good kind, and that was over 1m. I feel this journey is ideal for him and he’s a very good each-way guess within the first.
Aiden O’Brien’s acquired a reasonably good report on this and he’s acquired two darts on the board right here. I’m going for an additional British-trained horse although in The Strikin Viking. Kevin Ryan trains this one who received properly at York. It’s barely completely different floor however he ought to be capable to deal with it.
This can be a dash over 6f. Final 12 months’s winner Commanche Falls is a short-enough favorite however hasn’t been in the identical form of kind in 2024. I’m going to go towards this horse with Ano Syra who’s actually attention-grabbing.
It’s a must to forgive a poor run final time however when final seen on the Curragh that third behind Mitbaahy reads properly now. The bottom is much like then, she receives 10lbs on Commanche Falls, and she or he truly completed in entrance of him after they each ran right here in August final 12 months.
The Rockingham is a conventional dash handicap and many good horses have received this through the years. It’s attention-grabbing that John and Sean Quinn deliver Jm Jungle over right here and he’s the choice. He’s a reasonably good each-way worth and I’ll be making the most of that. He’s acquired some good kind in some good-field handicaps and completed behind Equality at Musselburgh and ran rather well up at York in a race received by Clarendon Home over 5f.
I struggled with this race and I’m going to search for some each-way worth. Azada light tamely within the Irish 1,000 Guineas on the Curragh behind Fallen Angel and it is going to be attention-grabbing to see how she copes in right here. I’m taking the three-year-old Colt Atlantic Coast as my choice as he’s a very good each-way worth.
I preferred the best way he completed his final race off on the Curragh within the Irish 2000 Guineas which has confirmed to be a really sturdy race. He was a crushed favorite on heavy floor at Leopardstown however again on this floor he might be worth.
I feel Los Angeles is the worth on this race. Ambiente Pleasant ran a hell of a race at Epsom and he seemed like he was galloping throughout Metropolis Of Troy for a minute. Will probably be attention-grabbing to see how Aidan O’Brien’s staff play this however I actually like Los Angeles as a horse.
He acquired himself a bit of bit heat within the preliminaries earlier than the race so having a house recreation right here on the Curragh will likely be extra to his style. If he’s capable of comprise himself within the construct up I feel he’s undoubtedly a participant.
I’m going for my previous mate Paul Flynn’s Cheers Once more right here. He’s run some good races the final twice in good-field handicaps and I feel the consistency is the important thing right here. Solely 1lb larger than the final time and I’m hoping this one will get it completed for Flynner!
I’m going for Kayhana on this one. The Dermot Weld-trained filly had an excellent run behind State Actor final time. I’m hoping that kind goes to get a lift earlier within the day and she or he’s the one for me.
