The week didn't get off to the best start with my pick Fag an Bealach falling to finish at Killarney. The 5/1 chance was not fluent and was 14th after the 9th. She weakened after the 12th and was never a factor and she was pulled up before the 13th. The 4/1 joint favourite Shady Operator easily won by 6 1/2 lengths.
It's a Tuesday double bill with 7 races at Roscommon and 8 at Killarney, the big race at Roscommon is the 1.30 when 9 begin the Irish EBF Median Sires Series Maiden. Cool And Clever was a promising 4th on debut at Cork 38 days ago,he goes up in trip here and should be respected. Tumultuous also looked good on debut finishing 6th at The Curragh in mid April he can definitely improve and will be a player. Sunset Shiraz is an interesting newcomer who makes her debut here,this half sister to Elisaagain and Berkshire Rocco looks good on paper and can't be overlooked. The other one in the field to look at is Pilbara Gold who was 5th on debut at The Curragh just 8 days ago and should definitely have more to offer here. The main contest at Killarney comes at 8.15 when 11 start the Killarney Racecourse Thanking All Frontline Workers Turf Race. Crowns Major won on debut at Punchestown 2 weeks ago and is a leading contender here. Amhran Na Bhfiann was 3rd in the Epsom Derby last year and didn't need to be at his best when winning at Dundalk on his return 20 days ago he definitely has a good chance. The other challenger is Hook Up a promising filly who last won at Fairyhouse in November and was a good 6th to Gauloise in a hurdle at Punchestown when last seen at the end of April and she can't be ruled out.
Big race predictions: Roscommon: 5: Cool And Clever Killarney: 8: Crowns Major.
