An excellent day at Naas on Tuesday saw both my picks win,in the 12.05 Journey With Me led for a second time 2 out. The 7/4 shot made a mistake at the last but despite that he kept on well under pressure on the run-in pulling away to beat Brides Hill by 13 lengths. In the Grade 2 Inthepocket was 4th early improving to lead from 2 out. He stayed on well in the final furlong just holding on to beat Three Card Brag by a neck.
The last Irish racing day before Christmas is on Wednesday with 8 races at both Fairyhouse and Dundalk where there are 3 highlights.
Fairyhouse 12.37: NavanRacecourse.ie Rated Novice Chase.
2: Hallowed Star: A useful hurdler who impressed when winning by 19 lengths on his chase debut at Galway in October. He was travelling well when falling 4 out in a Grade 2 at Punchestown when last seen 32 days ago however that can be overlooked and he should quickly get back to winning ways here going back up in trip.
Dundalk 5.45: Irishinjuredjockeys.com Race.
11: Cyber Attack: Produced her career best performance when 3rd in a maiden on this course 12 days ago. She holds the edge on form topping the shortlist and getting the nod to open her account on only her 4th start.
Dundalk 7.15: Happy Christmas From All At Dundalk Stadium Handicap.
9: Walhaan: Despite it being 19 runs since his last win he has gone well here on his previous 2 starts,a good second last month was followed up by a creditable 6th 19 days ago. Dropping back to 7 furlongs is in his favour and he is preferred in this one.
