21/4/23 Cork & Kilbeggan

 Thursday's only finisher was at Kilbeggan where Ballyglass Beauty came 5th, the 11/4 favourite was towards the rear early but made headway after the 6th. He made no impression in 4th approaching the straight dropping to 5th and having no extra in the closing stages, Desert Heather won beating Townhill Penny by 9 lengths. Over at Tipperary Leap Year was a non-runner in a race won by Son Of Corballis who beat Edwardian by 1 1/4 lengths. 

 The weeks third double header takes place on Friday with 7 races at both Cork and Kilbeggan where we have 2 features. 

Cork 3.08: Irish Stallion Farms EBF Noblesse Stakes. 

1: Ottilien: A smart filly who rounded off her career with trainer David Menuisier with a good 3rd behind Sea La Rosa in the Prix De Royallieu at Longchamp in October. She has since moved to Joseph O’Brien and on form should make a winning start for him here.

Kilbeggan 6.10: Irish Stallion Farms EBF Mares Beginners Chase. 

4: Happy D'ex: A useful chaser who already has 2 wins from 6 runs this season her latest was at Perth in September. She was a creditable 2nd behind Time To Rocco in a novice chase at Thurles when last seen 34 days ago and she looks like the one to beat as she attempts to open her fences account.
