22/9/23 Listowel & Dundalk

 A poor Thursday at Listowel saw Harry The Rogue finish 5th, the 3/1 shot led early but was challenged from a furlong out being passed soon after dropping to 3rd. He had no extra weakening inside the final furlong, upfront Look At The Stars won easily beating Cardinal Zin by 5 1/2 lengths. In the days big race Jabbar was a non-runner with the contest going to Vera Verto who beat Vischio by 5 lengths. 

 A Friday double header sees 8 races at both Listowel on the penultimate day of there Harvest Festival and Dundalk with two highlights. 

Listowel 2.05: Ladbrokes Handicap Hurdle. 

2: Filey Bay: A decent horse who ran well to be placed in both the Betfair and County hurdles at the beginning of this year. His latest win came on the flat at Tramore last month leading in closing stages and comfortably coming home by 3 lengths. His run at Tipperary last time can be overlooked and he can return to winning ways now back over hurdles. 

Dundalk 4.50: Irish Stallion Farms EBF Race.

1: Alabama: Has been mixing in good circles recently with two runner-up finishes in listed company on his record. Was a good fourth at York 27 days ago and here on his all-weather debut he should be tough to beat.
