9/12/22 Dundalk

 A poor Thursday at Clonmel saw Ronald Pump finish 3rd, the 5/2 joint favourite was 6th at halfway improving to dispute the lead 3 out. He was 2nd entering the straight but made no impression before 2 out keeping on at one pace, he lost 2nd close to home with Floueur easily winning the race by 14 lengths. In the 2.45 Happy Dreams was 4th, the 9/4 shot led early but was passed at the 4th. He was 3rd at halfway coming under pressure and dropping to 4th two out. Upfront Womalko beat Carrolls Cottage by 1/2 a length. 

 We end the week with 8 races at Dundalk on Friday night where there are two main events.

5.00: Irish Stallion Farms EBF Race.

1: Catherine Of Siena: A useful filly who put in a career best performance to win on this course when last seen a month ago. She stayed on well to comfortably come home by 5 lengths so the drop to five furlongs here shouldn’t be a problem. She has the best form on show and can follow up. 

5.30: Irish EBF Median Sires Series Fillies Maiden.

14: Sound Of The Night: Showed lots of ability when exceeding expectations to finish 2nd over course and distance on debut 35 days ago. She was sent off at 100/1 and led until the final strides showing that this trip of 7 furlongs could suit. She sets the standard here and gets the nod to go one better.
