8/7/22 Cork + Kilbeggan

 Out of Thursday's 3 picks the best performance came in the 8.00 at Leopardstown where Rosscarbery won,the 15/8 favourite made headway from 2 out leading soon after. She went clear a furlong from the finish but soon faced a strong challenge,she kept on well when pressed in the final 110 yards just doing enough to beat Emily Dickinson by a short head. In the other races Mazagran was 5th while Flying Dolphin finished 8th.

 It's another double header to round off the week with 7 races at both Cork and Kilbeggan on Friday evening with two main events. 

Cork 7.35: Hothouse Flowers Play Live After Racing Hurdle. 

1:Darver Star: A smart hurdler who was a disappointing 7th behind Darasso in the Ballybin Hurdle at Fairyhouse when last seen 81 days ago. He looks the form pick here and with his stable on a good run he should bounce back. 

Kilbeggan 7.50: Axa Farm Insurance Midlands National Handicap Chase. 

11: Ilikedwayurthinkin: A decent horse who was a creditable 2nd in the Mayo National at Ballinrobe 38 days ago. He kept on well in the closing stages and despite a weight rise he is unexposed over this trip and gets the nod.
