Another good day saw two of my picks win at Leopardstown, in the 4.05 History was in midfield sitting 6th 3 out. She improved to lead inside the final furlong staying on well close to home beating Agartha by 3/4 of a length. In the Derby Trial Stone Age made all the running travelling well entering the straight. He went clear 1 1/2 furlongs out staying on strongly to impressively beat Glory Daze by 5 1/2 lengths, he was immediately cut from 12/1 to 3/1 favourite for the highlight at Epsom. The only horse who didn't win was Georgeville who finished 4th. He was 5th a furlong out gaining a place in the closing stages. Pretreville won the race by 1 3/4 lengths.
Another busy week begins with 7 races at Roscommon on Monday with 2 features.
4.25: Irish EBF Median Sires Series Maiden.
15: Comhra: A promising looking horse who was a good second on debut at The Curragh a week ago. Despite being no match for the winner she goes up in trip here and sets a solid standard.
6.00: Irish Stallion Farms EBF Median Auction Race.
2: Swan Bay: A lightly-raced winner who was 6th behind Piz Badile in the Ballysax Stakes on his return at Leopardstown 37 days ago. He has race fitness on his side and the best form so should take all the beating.
