9/8/23 Sligo

 The best at Roscommon on Tuesday came from Gentleman Joe who was 2nd, the 7/4 shot was prominent early making headway from 3 out. He briefly disputed the lead soon after but had no extra after jumping slightly to the right at the last allowing Gracchus De Balme to pull away and win by 5 1/2 lengths. The other pick Ballyglass Beauty was 7th in a race won by Hand Over Fist who beat Fill The Tank by 1 1/2 lengths. 

 Sligo stages the midweek meeting where on a seven race card two stand out. 

6.10: Irish Stallion Farms EBF Connacht Oaks Fillies Handicap. 

2: Perfect Portrait: Opened her account at Gowran Park in May beating Letiza by a length and then ran in listed company at Naas 42 days ago not being disgraced when coming home 6th. Her yard is in excellent form and she can improve to take this on her handicap debut. 

6.40: Irish EBF Auction Series Maiden. 

4: Cardinal Zin: Caught the eye when finishing 7th at Leopardstown on debut 3 weeks ago. He showed there was something to work with when running on well inside the final furlong despite not being ideally placed. He is open to further improvement and looks like the one to beat as he aims to pick up his first career win.
