Thursday was a mixed day for my picks at Listowel, in the 1.25 Simpson's Paradox was a non-runner in a race won by Lark In The Mornin while the 4.20 saw Autumn Evening finish 2nd. The 7/2 shot was 7th at halfway improving to sit 5th two out. He was 3rd soon after staying on well under pressure inside the final furlong grabbing 2nd close to home, Flying Scotsman won by 1 1/4 lengths.
There are two meetings on Friday with 8 races at both Listowel and Dundalk with 2 main events.
Listowel 2.15: Ladbrokes Handicap Hurdle.
7: Glan: Was a good 4th behind the reoposing Tudor City in the Galway Hurdle when last seen 57 days ago. He fared best of those that were held up and on form he tops the shortlist and can reverse the placings here off a similar mark.
Dundalk 7.00: Al Basti Equiworld Dubai Diamond Stakes.
8: State Occasion: A smart filly who has 3 wins from 5 runs this year. Her career best came in a handicap at York 35 days ago where she beat Amanzoe by 2 lengths. She has solid claims and should take the step up in class in her stride with the British raider able to complete a hat-trick.
