IRELAND’S EYE
BETDAQ sponsor the full card on the days only all weather card and on a relatively busy day there are also flat cards at Ffos Las and Bath. Roscommon provides the action in Ireland today where an interesting mixed card looks to have a couple of interesting long priced fancies. A locally trained bottom weight whose only career success came at this fixture can register his first win over fences while a former point winner can land an open looking novice chase for the Arthur Moore yard on his seasonal reappearance.
Yesterday yielded another few winners for the column with our first choice High Magic (4-3/1) getting the nod from the judges in a Clonmel youngsters maiden hurdle at the expense of our saver Big Game Hunter (6/5). However we had to rely on two savers to deliver our other winners with Chrysanthemum (7/2) maintaining his hundred per cent record in a Group 3 event at the Curragh in a race where our selection Bible Belt (11/2-5/1) finished a close third. Our nap Swiftmarc (14-12/1) was not disgraced in finishing third in the Cesarewitch while saver Gaelic Grounds (12/1) managed to land a handicap chase at Clonmel.
Though the Gigginstown owned Sorceror won his sole point two years ago the lightly raced six year old has looked to be suited by the minimum distance in the interim and the son of Sleeping Car can put his experience to good use by landing the Grade 3 novice chase at Roscommon this afternoon at 4-35. Winner of a 2m Punchestown maiden hurdle from the subsequent scorer Acapulco following a promising debut in this sphere behind Realt Dubh he has run four decent races over fences to date behind such useful sorts as Captain Cee Bee, River Liane and Shakervilz (including a Grade 2). Paddy Floods mount usually makes the running and though his point win was achieved on good ground he seems suited by some ‘cut’ and as the sort who usually runs well when fresh he can collect here from the penalised dual chase winner Beau Michael who was not totally disgraced in taking fourth behind the progressive Kilmurry at Galway last time on unsuitably faster ground.
Val O’Briens Ballygill Gale has only collected once during his career but the 6yo win came over hurdles in a 3m hc hurdle over a year ago and it could pay to side with the bottom weight in the 2m 5f hc chase (soft) at Roscommon this evening (5-05). Though he has had seven attempts over the major obstacles he has mainly raced on better ground but he has shown on his most recent starts which included a fair fifth over CD almost two months ago on good ground and a reasonably promising third over a furlong further at Ballinrobe last time that his turn may be coming. Though he is a pound out of the handicap he has the 3lbs claims of Phillip Enright to draw upon and in receipt of plenty of weight from his rivals here – none of whom boast a compelling profile here – he should get the better of seasonal debutant and dual chase winner Old Si who has never been the most consistent but Dessie Hughes 7yo is suited by ground and trip.
It could be argued that Regal D’Estruval stole a 2m maiden hurdle on fast ground at Roscommon almost three months ago with a bold front running performance but the five year old has since run well in better company and he could make it a double by landing the novice hurdle this evening at 5-35 over CD. In the meanwhile the French bred has seen the backside of the progressive Ballyadam Brook on two occasions at Galway (finishing 3rd) and on most recent at Listowel with the form boosted by yesterdays easy winner Cass Bligh who has finished three placings and some four lengths ahead of the selection. Favourite Dark Prospect and Tom Taaffes good Kilbeggan scorer Steeltown will have their supporters with the latter looking the more interesting of the pair dropped back in trip. However the main danger may come from Lizzie Bennett who was a comfortable winner of a Clonmel 2m maiden hurdle before running well in taking second to an improving mare in a mares novice over two miles and three at Kilbeggan. Willie McCreerys five year old has since finished a good runner up in a Listowel 12f flat handicap and Barry Cashs mount looks open to further progression.
3-10 KEMPTON – BET MULTIPLES – BETDAQ 1m 4f hc
The Moore runner Green Wadi only success has come on the grass in a Bath contest over the distance over a year ago but the 5yo has been showing promise on the all weather and a reproduction of his latest staying on second placing over CD gives him a leading chance here but a chance is taken on the Beckett trained 3yo CAST OF STARS towards the bottom of the handicap in the first time visor.

IRELAND’S EYE
Another busy day in Ireland with two fine cards at the Curragh and Clonmel down South over sticks. Headquarters action features two fine Group contests in addition to the Cesarewitch handicap over two miles while the Tipperary fixture features an open looking novice as its centrepiece. Meanwhile in England following Frankie Dettori’s great four timer at Ascot yesterday there is another top notch card there today with a brace of Group races and a Listed event while over jumps it is the second day of a two day fixture over jumps at Market Rasen while in Scotland flat fans are treated to action at Musselburgh. We have some value selections today at both the Irish meets on the DAQ with Dessie Hughes holding a leading chance of landing the big handicap at the Curragh while over jumps a handicap debutant is taken to register first time in a staying hurdle.
We recorded a hat trick of winners on Saturday with Aidan O’Briens Pirateer (5/2) landing a competitive handicap with one of our savers Defining Years (4-7/2) back in third at Gowran while saver Hawkhill (13/2-6/1) landed another handicap later in the same card. Over jumps at Gowran we were on the mark with the short priced Araucaria (1/1-4/5) proved the middle leg of a treble for John Kiely while savers First Lieutenant (10/3) and Shop DJ (5-4/1) both just finished out of the money in their respective maiden hurdles.
Jessica Harrington landed the Group 3 Weld Stakes back in 2004 and the in form trainer can further bolster her fine flat season with victory for the twice raced Bible Belt in the 7f contest at the Curragh today at 3-15. Though this daughter of Big Bad Bob has only been campaigned at Roscommon to date and provincial track form can often be suspect at Headquarters nevertheless the selection has looked progressive and having enjoyed little luck on her debut she duly followed up in good style (eventually) three weeks later on easy ground by a wide margin ‘at the death’ over todays trip. Having shown signs of greeness on her last start she should be open to more improvement and she will have to do so to see off likely favourite Chrysanthemum who was most impressive when beating a decent field of more experienced rivals in a Listed mile event here two weeks ago. David Wachmans filly could be hard to beat if reproducing that performance dropped back in distance whilst the consistent Katla could appreciate this step up in trip and Brian Meehans English challenger is another not to left out of calculations.
Seamus Braddish’s Double Kudos has only visited the winners enclosure once during his six year racing career (missed 2008) and though the 8yo might not be the obvious choice to land the 2m 4f hc chase at Clonmel (4-50) this afternoon he gets our vote to record his maiden chase success. With his sole victory coming over this distance in a Punchestown hc hurdle almost three years ago on yielding ground and having shown promise when placed in a few chases over further on faster ground already this year this drop back in distance and easier ground may bring about the necessary improvement to see him open his chase account under 5lb claimer Adrian Heskin with his third placing to the highly progressive recent Kerry National winner Alfa Beat (gave 19lbs) on penultimate start in a Galway 2m 6f hc. There are several dangers however in an open contest and the best of these could be long standing maiden (did win point) Shan Brogeen and another ex point winner Gaelic Ground.
Featured handicap of the day at the Curragh today is the 2m Cesarewitch at 5-00 and with the ground riding on the soft side it may pay to focus on those nearer the bottom of the handicap. Dessie Hughes Swiftmarc boasts three wins over flights up to 2m 4f and the 7yo but is a relatively unexposed type on the level however. A good winner of a lady riders maiden at Tramore over this trip in August the In The Wings gelding has run well in defeat the last twice, just getting edged out by one of todays rivals Endless Intrigue (now 7lbs worse off) at Killarney over 2m 1f before finishing a fair third behind the progressive Admiral Barry over an inadequate 1m 6f here on soft over two weeks ago. Rory Clearys mount can land this big ‘pot’ on his sixth flat start and see off 3yo Knight Legend – a mile winner last year at Listowel who has shaped as if this trip will suit having stayed on to take the runner up prize in a Down Royal 1m 5f contest last time despite going up 7lbs for that effort. Another worth a saver is Charlie Swans Boulavogue who is another unexposed type on the flat and though can be a frustrating sort the 7yo will be suited by ground/trip and boasts a decent record fresh.
2-35 CLONMEL – 2m 1/2f 4yo maiden hurdle
Big Game Hunter rates the obvious choice here on his sixth hurdles start having shown decent form on this surface in Graded hurdles earlier this year but with his stable going through a quiet patch it may be worth taking the 95 rated flat campaigner with the once raced hurdler HIGH MAGIC who is a maiden on the flat (rated 78) but John O’Sheas youngster shaped well when losing out narrowly over this trip at Down Royal on good ground.
3-40 CLONMEL – 3m hc hurdle
An open handicap and though Niall Morans WRECKITMAN makes his handicap debut here under 5lb claimer Liam McNiff following his success in a Sligo maiden hurdle over the trip he could prove progressive enough to see off dual point winner King Rocco and Without The Bop who should appreciate this trip having finished third over 2m 3fg at Killarney last time.
