24/7/23 Ballinrobe

 Neither of Sunday’s tips ran after the meeting at The Curragh was called off due to significant overnight rain which left parts of the track waterlogged and unraceable. The meeting has been rearranged for Sunday August 13th but the Group 2 Romanised Minstrel Stakes now takes place at Leopardstown on Thursday with the Group 3 Fillies Stakes being added to Gowran Park's card on Saturday. 

 After Sunday’s abandonment Irish racing moves on to Ballinrobe on Monday where on a 7 race card there are 2 main events. 

5.40: Tote Always SP Or Better At Ballinrobe Maiden. 

2: Nostringsattached: A lightly-raced filly who was a respectable 2nd at Limerick when last seen back in April. She led early and had a 5 length advantage 1 1/2 furlongs out, she was passed in the final 150 yards going down by 3 1/2 lengths. Despite being off 93 days she has to be taken seriously and can pick up her first win.

7.10: Play The Tote Exacta On Every Race Handicap. 

1: Hell Bent: A decent horse who finished a creditable 2nd at Fairyhouse 12 days ago. She led for most of the way being caught and passed in the last 50 yards so going down in trip here will suit. If the same positive tactics are used then she is the one to beat.
