A good Thursday at Clonmel saw both my picks finish 2nd, in the opener Pont Aval tracked the leaders challenging from 2 out. She made no impression on the run-in keeping on at one pace allowing My Design to pull away and win by 2 1/2 lengths. The 4.25 saw Trust Me Nate lead early going clear after the 2nd. He had a 5 length lead at halfway but that was reduced from 3 out. He was strongly pressed and passed at the last making no impression on the run-in, Figaroc won the race by a length.
There are 8 races at Dundalk on Friday night where they have 2 highlights.
7.00: Story Of Dundalk Stadium Book Available Online Maiden.
8: Segomo: A decent horse who was second over course and distance when last seen 30 days ago. He was clear of the rest and with cheekpieces on for the 1st time he has leading claims here and can go one better.
7.30: Patton Stakes.
1: Cairo: Made good progress as a 2-y-o picking up a career best when he made it 2 wins from 4 starts taking the Group 3 Killavullan Stakes at Leopardstown in October. He still has better to come and this looks like a decent race to make his return. He enjoys the trip having already won over a mile which is why he is the one to beat here.
