Winter’s on the best way child and prime TV pundit and all-round good man Fran Berry previews an earlier begin than ordinary begin to the Irish all-weather monitor’s motion over the following few months. Count on late season winners within the maidens from Aidan and Joseph O’Brien with late maturing sorts and be careful for the additionally rans from the Turf season, who’ve slipped down the scores and may take benefit on the higher floor on the polytrack venue. And as at all times, watch the draw!
A 5f juvenile race with a couple of fascinating entries. Saratoga Particular and Shamrock Breeze have clashed a couple of occasions already whereas Highly effective Nation brings within the highest ranking to contest on 100. Andrew Slattery’s runner is certainly the one to be with so I’ll plump for Highly effective Nation who has but to be out of the primary two in three begins and recorded a win at Cork.
A two-year-old maiden race the place Agouti Bear needs to be able to upholding the shape when second at Navan over 6f final time when fancied. Lots of these could also be higher suited by the minimal journey reasonably than the 6f distance and one who might be the worth in opposition to the possible favorite is Annie Lavinia. She confirmed indicators of inexperience in each begins to this point and may come out on prime as she seems a piece in progress. If she doesn’t rating then I’ll be looking for her in handicaps within the weeks forward.
James Henry has been extremely constant and obtained outpaced final time on the Curragh having missed a while in the course of the season. He’ll be performed late over this 7f journey however Scott McCullough rides his effectively and is worth for his 3lb declare. Dandy’s Derriere can go effectively however it’s two handicap debutants I’m interested by. Altimara off a mark of 67 is price a re-assessment out there however Princess Aurea seems a participant dropping again to 7f having completed third right here when a giant drifter again in July. She’s an honest attract stall two additionally.
Marble Angel deserves to be favorite however might be tight sufficient out there. Billy Lee rides for Andy Oliver. Consolation Line shoulders joint prime weight with Adam Caffrey taking 3lb off and he’s a earlier winner right here over this 1m journey. Sayfa Fad might be a giant participant with Colin Keane booked to journey. Nevertheless, Thompson Gunner drops in school to this 47-65 handicap and appears slightly unexposed. He ran in a 0-80 handicap on the Curragh final month when down the sector. He’s bombed out on gentle floor a few time however the change to the polytrack might repay, particularly as he’s been dropped 3lbs for his Curragh run. An each-way probability.
Napper Tandy heads the weights off a ranking of 80 and there’s some strong a number of winners on this 1m 4f contest for apprentices. A number of are higher suited by 2m however Poleman ought to admire it. Miss Paloma is a twin winner at this monitor and has a superb document contemporary. She received effectively right here in July in a race that’s figuring out very effectively and will nonetheless be effectively handicapped. Robin Donaghue-Leahy, who’s claiming 7lbs, is aware of her very effectively.
The primary division of two handicaps the place Hurricane Helen tops the weights however the 10f journey mightn’t swimsuit. Step to Someplace is being continued with by the Dermot Weld staff and runs off a mark of 65 beneath Chris Hayes and deserves most respect. Explorers Means is constant, whereas Redemptive Energy needs to be aggressive now dropping in grade and is certainly one to maintain on facet within the week’s forward. For me although, the pedigree of Elsa’s Pleasure screams all-weather floor. She drops in grade and her first attempt on the polytrack floor is usually a successful one.
The second division of the 1m 2f occasion the place Epaulawn is an effective yardstick on this grade. Gardone noticed him off final time although however could also be susceptible over this journey reasonably than at 1m 4f. I’ve been ready for Imperial Miss since September 2, who saved on very well at Roscommon final time. She has the profile of an Autumn campaigner and appears a participant down towards the underside of the weights. A stall eight draw is not any hurt both.
We finish the primary evening of the brand new marketing campaign over 1m 2f the place Aidan O’Brien saddles Psalm who has but to win in six begins, regardless of bringing within the prime ranking of 82 now. He has the power to win a maiden at a while however is slightly regressive. Raydamann has been hit or miss too as has Ozark Daze. The one I like is Bard of Avon who appeared first rate of debut however was off the monitor a very long time earlier than reappearing on the Curragh when fourth to Fighter over 10f. He seems to be extra progressive than the others. He’s my nap of the evening.
