I’m siding with Make Clear. He’s bettering and he’s acquired attract stall two. He’s received 4 of his 9 runs this 12 months together with his course and distance win a number of weeks in the past. Shane Foley has received on him up to now and hopefully he can get out shortly with blinkers on for the primary time.
Ardagh Purple is the one to be with after a cracking debut run at Dundalk final month when second behind stablemate Queens Fury. He went via the road properly and the step up now to a mile will swimsuit him. The 7lb claimer Nicola Burns takes the journey for Adrian Murray on Friday and the declare will assist. The stall three draw is respectable too.
I’m with Hightimeyouwon. There will probably be a pleasant tempo on and a small subject will play to his strengths. He likes to trace the tempo and he completed properly final day out at Dundalk in November. He’s taking over pretty uncovered rivals and the smaller subject means he ought to have much less runners to get previous.
Morning Strategy has the very best present type out of any of those. She ran a cracker final time when staying on properly to complete fourth. She’s a course and distance winner and Jack Kearney is on board whereas taking off 5lbs. That’s a giant assist and he or she’s acquired attract stall 4. She might be exhausting to beat.
Division II of the 1m handicap and I’ll take two in opposition to the sphere in Hieloray and Agia. This seems a weaker contest than the primary division and I’m prepared to tackle the probably favorite Deed Pole.
Hieloray was previously educated within the UK and posted some good runs there. He’s improved for his two runs in Eire to this point and the step as much as a mile ought to swimsuit him. The drop in school and a pleasant attract stall two ought to see him go shut.
Agia was positioned in two maidens at this observe when educated by Ger Lyons earlier than swapping to Paul Flynn. She ran down the sphere for the secure final time however races on this decrease grade now off a mark of 65. Regardless of shouldering high weight – even with Rob Whearty’s 3lb declare – I’d have most respect for her each-way notably if there’s a market transfer.
A 10f maiden the place they’ve all had a run. Dahab and Legendary Rock are high of the scores – for those who have one – on 77. I wouldn’t rule out Expelliarmus however he’s been off the course for 405 days (the place he ran over hurdles) so a market watch is advisable. Aird may be very fascinating for Henry de Bromhead and has formed higher than the naked outcomes recommend on the Turf to this point. Her penultimate run noticed her end third in a three-way picture and that kind of type will see her go shut now on this polytrack floor. She’s my subsequent greatest guess after my nap within the final.
An apprentice handicap over 1m 4f the place lots look to have possibilities. Waystar ran very properly right here and Jamie Powell rides however Billie Frechette catches my eye for coach Noel Meade. Her final two runs have been over hurdles however earlier than that had respectable type on the Flat at Cork, Roscommon and Navan. A change now to the polytrack can see her get her head in entrance.
An excellent race to finish the cardboard over 1m 4f. There’s a pair who might come out within the morning and the 2 Halford & Collins’ runners in Ceallach (who hasn’t run shortly) and Slieve Binnian set the usual. The latter seems properly handicapped and might comply with up his final win at this venue and is my nap of the night time. Tribal Star may give him most to do.
