At Dundalk on Wednesday my pick Enjoymyslipstream was 3rd,the 9/4 shot chased the leader in 2nd early on dropping to 3rd 1 1/2 furlongs out. She disputed 2nd in the final furlong but made no impression dropping back to 3rd close to home. The race was won by the 5/4 favourite Special Power.
Clonmel hosts the action on Thursday where the highlight of a 7 race card comes at 3.30 when 11 begin the www.grahamnorris.com Memorial Handicap Hurdle. First Touch made all the running when winning by 1 1/2 lengths at Roscommon in September. He followed that up with a very creditable 2nd over fences at Punchestown 16 days ago,he switches to hurdles here and should give another good account. Sassy Yet Classy is a course and distance winner who's latest victory was here in November last year. She was a good second in a handicap hurdle at Punchestown when last seen back in March and has to be taken seriously if ready for her reappearance. The other worthy of consideration is Thunderosa who was on the up after wins at Cork and Wexford but he was a bit below form when 10th at Punchestown 5 months ago,that was a blip and after a good summer break he can’t be ruled out.
Big race prediction: 7: First Touch.
