The best at The Curragh on Sunday came from Kyprios who was 2nd, the 4/6 favourite was 4th early improving to sit 3rd four out. He stayed on going into 2nd 1 1/2 furlongs from the finish but made no impression on the winner Eldar Eldarov who won by 3 1/2 lengths. In the other races Highfield Princess was 5th in a contest won by Moss Tucker who beat Get Ahead by 1/2 a length and City Of Troy was a non-runner.
After a busy weekend Monday sees eight races at Galway with two features.
4.30: Deacy Gilligan Hurdle.
6: Seddon: Was in excellent form for a new yard last season winning at the Cheltenham Festival and completing a 4-timer with a hurdles win at the Punchestown festival. Finished 4th on his return on the flat at Killarney last month but will be sharper for that and can return to winning ways here.
6.45: Kenny Developments Handicap Chase.
2: Iridescent: A promising horse who has 3 wins from 4 runs this season his latest was a career best when dropping down in trip at Wexford 31 days ago. He travelled well to lead from 3 out and despite being passed he got to the front again in the closing stages coming home by 1/2 a length. A 9lb penalty shouldn't be a problem and he can follow up.
