On Thursday at Laytown Dream Today won,the 7/4 favourite was 3rd at halfway travelling well to lead from a furlong out. He kept on inside the final furlong beating Chavajod by 2 1/4 lengths. In the 7.25 Alessandro Algardi was 2nd. The 6/5 favourite led for a second time two out. He came under pressure and was passed close to home, Cordouan won the race by a short head.
As I write this (8.45pm on Thursday 8th September) Irish racing still goes ahead on Friday with 8 races at Ballinrobe and two highlights.
4.25: Irish Stallion Farms EBF Opportunity Mares Maiden Hurdle.
14: Still Ciel: A promising horse who looked good when second in a novice hurdle at Cork 39 days ago. She was well clear of the rest there and with improvement likely she can go one better here giving her leading claims.
5.35: Irish Stallion Farms EBF Mares Handicap Hurdle.
8: Frazel Express: A consistent performer this season who picked up her latest win at Tramore in June. She was a very creditable second at Sligo when last seen 23 days ago running on well late. Another performance like that gives her a good chance here and she has to be taken seriously.
