12/4/23 Gowran Park

 Tuesday's winner at Dundalk was Red Riding Hood, the 2/7 favourite led early and was 4 lengths clear at halfway. She had a reduced advantage early in the straight and despite veering sharply to the right in the final 150 yards she kept on to beat Letiza by 3/4 of a length. The other pick Vanity Pays finished 2nd, the 11/8 favourite tracked the leaders and sat 3rd at halfway. She was bumped by a rival a furlong out but kept on well in the closing stages just failing to reach the winner Brighter who came home by a head. 

 The midweek meeting takes place at Gowran Park where as part of a 7 race card 2 stand out. 

4.10: Irish Stallion Farms EBF Race.

2: Shadowed: A horse in good form who achieved a career best win at The Curragh 18 days ago. He went clear in the closing stages staying on strongly and easily coming home by 2 1/4 lengths. There is definitely more to come and with fitness over his main rivals on his side he can follow up here. 

5.10: SP Or Better Guaranteed With Tote Handicap. 

5: Newfoundland: A lightly-raced horse who was a creditable 9th in a stronger race at Royal Ascot on his final run of last year. He has since left Aidan O’Brien and moved to son Joseph's yard and remains with plenty of potential. Despite being off 10 months improvement is expected and he can make a winning return.
