Wednesday wasn't a good day with my pick Moll being a non runner. The Munster Oaks was won by the 3/1 chance Thunder Kiss who beat Slience Please by 3/4 of a length.
There are 8 races at Leopardstown on Thursday and the standout contest is the 5.50 when 11 start the Ballycorus Stakes. Pearls Galore is a smart filly who clearly wasn't 100% when 8th at Dundalk when last seen back in November however her form before that gives her an excellent chance here. Lord Of The Lodge picked up his career best win in a handicap at Lingfield on his last run 69 days ago and he can definitely make his presence felt. Snapraeterea last tasted success at Naas in mid May winning the Owenstown Stud Stakes by 1/2 a length,and he looked like he was still in good form when 3rd in the Gallinule Stakes at The Curragh 18 days ago. That was on heavy ground so he should go better here. The other one worth a look is Speak In Colours who won this race last year and in preparation for another crack was 7th to Gustavus Weston in the Greenlands Stakes at The Curragh 19 days ago so he definitely can't be overlooked.
Big race prediction: 6: Pearls Galore.
