5/11/21 Dundalk

 Thursday's feature saw my pick Keepthefaithinme finish 2nd. The 11/4 chance sat 4th early moving into 2nd 3 out. He made no impression from a furlong out keeping on at the same pace allowing the 9/2 shot Imperial Lord to win by 3 1/2 lengths. 

 We finish the week with 7 races at Dundalk where the highlight is the 5.15 when 17 line-up for the listed Irish Stallion Farms EBF Cooley Fillies Stakes.  In a competitive field the vote goes to Oddnadatta a useful horse who was a good 3rd to Elysium at Naas 19 days ago. She makes her polytrack debut here and has the form to make it a winning one. Marbling picked up her career best win in a handicap on this course 3 weeks ago. She goes up in trip here and with her trainer going well she should give a good account of herself. So I Told You has 3 wins from 9 runs this year but was 9th to Georgeville in a listed race at Leopardstown 20 days ago. Despite that she looks good on form and should challenge. The other who has a chance is Moody Poddle who made it a hat-trick of wins at Killarney in August and was a creditable 5th when last seen at Naas in mid October putting her high on the shortlist. 

Big race prediction: 13: Oodnadatta.
