It was another brilliant day on Sunday which again saw both my picks win, in the GAIN Railway Stakes Bucanero Fuerte travelled well to lead from 2 out. The 10/3 shot was passed but stayed on well inside the final furlong going to the front again near the line beating Unquestionable by a short head. In the highlight of the meeting the Irish Derby Auguste Rodin tracked the leaders in 3rd challenging and moving into the lead 2 1/2 furlongs out. The 4/11 favourite was strongly pressed soon after but kept on well under pressure to beat Adelaide River by 1 1/2 lengths completing the Derby double and giving trainer Aiden O’Brien a 100th European Classic.
After a busy 3 days at The Curragh Irish racing takes a break on Monday, there are meetings at Pontefract, Southwell, Windsor and Musselburgh. The next Irish cards are on Tuesday at Tipperary and Roscommon tips for the highlights will be up on Monday night.
