The best performance at The Curragh on Sunday came from Art Power who won. The Evens favourite made all the running staying on strongly inside the final furlong to beat Sam Maximus by 3 lengths winning the race for a second consecutive year. In the Irish Cesarewitch Echoes In Rain was 2nd. The 6/1 shot was in midfield sitting 10th 3 out. She made headway to lead from a furlong out staying on well but just being passed near the line by Waterville who won by a neck. The other race saw Caroline Street finish 6th, the 2/1 favourite had a poor start sitting 9th two out. She found herself short of room soon after but improved to 5th a furlong out. She kept on at the same pace inside the final furlong allowing Basil Martini to win by 1/2 a length.
Another week begins with 8 races at Down Royal and 7 at Roscommon on Monday with 2 features.
Down Royal 3.15: Irish EBF Auction Series Fillies Maiden .
3: Encosta: A promising horse who improved on her Leopardstown debut when 2nd at Naas 11 days ago. She ran on well in the closing stages and with progress on the cards she is a player here. She holds the edge on form and can go one better.
Roscommon 4.10: Ballymore Group Irish EBF Kilbegnet Novice Chase (Grade 3)
6: Sit Down Lucy: A good horse who has two wins from five runs this season. Her career best came at Galway 3 weeks ago where she beat Hallowed Star by an easy 8 lengths. She should definitely be taken seriously here as she bids for a hat-trick.
