The poor start to the week continued on Tuesday at Listowel, in the 4.20 Charterhouse was 6th. The 8/1 shot was slowly away but improved to sit 4th at halfway. He made a challenge from 2 out but came under pressure soon after, he had no extra inside the final furlong keeping on at the same pace. Upfront Neptune Rock beat Venice Biennale by 1/2 a length. The next saw Tiymara fail to finish. The 5/2 favourite was behind the leaders when she slipped up and fell 4 out. The race was won by Lord Massusus who came home by 2 1/2 lengths.
Day 4 of the Listowel Harvest festival takes place on Wednesday with 7 races and 2 highlights.
2.35: Seamus Mulvaney Bookmaker Novice Hurdle.
2: Amir Kabir: A promising horse who has one win from two runs this season. That came at Roscommon in July and he was only 1/2 a length behind the reposing Flaming Moon when 2nd in a listed race at Galway when last seen 57 days ago. He may well have finished closer if it hadn't been for a mistake at the last and with improvement likely he can turn the tables here.
4.20: Guinness Kerry National Handicap Chase.
7: Early Doors: Was a good fifth in the Irish National at Fairyhouse in April and then went to Tipperary and was 8th in the Grimes Hurdle 83 days ago. That run can be overlooked and he makes the switch from hurdles to chasing here. A bold show is likely if in the right form and he is the best of the Joseph O’Brien runners a trainer who won this race last year.
