I think it's fair to say we can forget about Wednesday as my pick Sh Boom was 9th,the 4/1 chance stumbled leaving the stalls and was last approaching the straight. She kept on at the same pace without threatening while upfront the 33/1 shot Nebo beat Ice Cold In Alex by 1/2 a length.
Thursday takes us to Leopardstown where the highlight of an 8 race card is the 6.40 when 17 line-up for the Irish Stallion Farms EBF 'Nasrullah ' (Premier Handicap.) Baby Zeus was impressive on his first run for Willie Mullins winning a handicap at The Curragh 46 days ago and he is hard to look past here. Mirann was 1/2 a length behind in that Curragh handicap and went on to finish a creditable 4th at Royal Ascot 20 days ago,we didn't see the best of him there but despite that another bold run is likely making him the main threat. Silaiyli picked up his career best win in a maiden at Down Royal in mid June,he makes his handicap debut here and with further improvement expected he can definitely challenge. Turan Shaman has picked up one win from three runs this year that came on this course back in May,he returned to finish a creditable third here 35 days ago so he can't be taken lightly. Of the rest keep an eye out for Flying Visit,Georgeville and Irish Poseidon all of whom could seize on any poor performances.
Big race prediction: 6: Baby Zeus.
