The week got off to a fair start,in the 2.30 Shopping Around was 10th at the halfway stage he didn't have a fluent run and he was pulled up entering the straight. The race was won by the 10/1 shot Espion Du Chenet. At 3.35 Capilano Bridge came 2nd. The 13/2 chance disputed the lead early until he made a mistake 5 out. By 2 out he was challenging again but he was bumped by a rival and lost all momentum losing by 3 1/2 lengths to Velvet Elvis.
After today's racing there is no more in Ireland until Wednesday. There are meetings on Tuesday at Carlisle where the big contests are the 1.00 and the 1.35. At Catterick the 2.15 and 3.15 take centre stage where there are also 7 races at both Kempton and Newcastle for your entertainment. The next Irish meeting will be at Dundalk my preview of that will be up tomorrow night.
