Thursday was another brilliant day for my picks,at Killarney Molly Wedger won. The 6/4 favourite tracked the leaders and was 3rd at halfway. She made good headway to lead entering the straight and despite being challenged briefly from 2 out she asserted herself on the run-in beating Hollymount by 2 1/2 lengths. In the big race at Leopardstown Bear Story was 2nd. The 11/2 shot led early but faced a strong challenge from a furlong out. He was passed and outpaced inside the final furlong by Boundless Ocean who won by 3 1/4 lengths.
Seven races at both Killarney and Kilbeggan on Friday round off the week with two highlights.
Killarney 4.35: Boylesports Handicap Chase.
7: The Dara Man: Was a creditable 4th in a handicap hurdle at Sligo when last seen just 5 days ago. That was his best recent effort and he goes well over fences having picked up an 11 length win at Limerick back in March giving him an excellent chance here.
Kilbeggan 6.30: Every Race Live On Racing TV Handicap Hurdle.
5: Swelltime: Despite it being 11 runs since his last win he was a respectable 7th at Cork a week ago. He was left with too much to do there but with improvement expected he should go well and is worth another chance.
