In Thursday's big race at Thurles Sa Fureur won, the 5/6 favourite was 4th at halfway improving to 3rd three out. He challenged soon after leading narrowly approaching the last. He kept on well just holding on to beat Buddy One by a short head. In the other contest Johngus was a disappointing 10th, the 8/1 shot tracked the leaders early sitting 5th at halfway. He dropped to 7th three out and after a slight mistake at the next he had no extra. Upfront O Mio Babbino beat Cahirdown Boy by a length.
The week concludes with our regular Friday night trip to Dundalk where on an 8 race card there are 2 highlights.
4.30: Irish Stallion Farms EBF Fillies Maiden.
2: Curvature: A well-bred newcomer who was a good 4th over course and distance on debut 84 days ago. That was a promising start and with further improvement expected she can open her account here in what is a useful-looking contest.
5.00: Crowne Plaza Dundalk Race & Stay Package Handicap.
3: Miss Mirabell: Ran an excellent race to finish 3rd on her all-weather debut over course and distance when last seen at the beginning of December. She finished strongly despite suffering late interference and with the 4th and 5th finishers that day both winning since she gets the nod here to pick up her 2nd career win off the same mark.
