My pick for Thursday Pencilfulloflead was a non runner. The race was won by Western Victory who easily beat Minx Tiara by 11 lengths.
Dundalk ends the week with 8 races on Friday where the feature comes at 6.30 when 9 begin the Betvictor Casino Handicap. Dances With Stars didn't need to improve to pick up his first career win in a maiden over this course and distance 9 days ago. He makes his handicap debut here and gets the nod. Golden Twilight has 2 wins from 5 runs this year, His best was a handicap on this course 28 days ago. He battled well that day to come home by a neck and should give it another good go. The other main challenger will be Dalvey. He showed great improvement on recent efforts when winning on this course a week ago. He was comfortable finishing 2 3/4 lengths in front and going back down in trip will suit. His yard is in good form so back-to-back wins could easily be achieved. Looking at the rest keep an eye on In From The Cold. He was a good 3rd in a hurdle at Gowran Park towards the end of last month. That was his hat-trick bid and with this being his polytrack debut he shouldn’t be ruled out.
Big race prediction: 9: Dances With Stars.
