In Tuesday's big race Roca Roma was 4th,the 5/2 favourite was 10th at halfway. She made no impression from a furlong out but kept on well to go 4th close to home. The 7/2 shot Visualisation won beating Geometrical by 2 1/2 lengths.
The highlight of the Listowel Harvest festival is on Wednesday when at 4.25 21 line-up for the Guinness Kerry National. Farclas is a classy horse who held his own in some top handicap chases last season. He was going well for a long way when a creditable 5th in the Grand National at Aintree with his stamina letting him down but he should go well here over a shorter distance. There are 3 others who should be in the mix. Conflated is a smart chaser who's last win was a Grade 3 at Naas back in March. His flat return at Gowran Park 3 weeks ago where he finished 4th was needed and he should put on a better showing here. Aramax was a creditable 3rd to Born By The Sea when last seen at Galway 54 days ago and that performance means he can't be ruled out while Darasso is a course winner who has 2 victory's from 4 runs this season. He was a very good 5th in the Galway Plate in July and should give another good account of himself here.
Big race prediction: 4: Farclas.
