Thursday's winner came at Bellewstown where Star Harbour tracked the leaders sitting 3rd at halfway. The 9/4 shot made no impression from a furlong out but he kept on well in the final 150 yards leading close to home beating Roaring Gallagher by a neck. Over at Clonmel Iridescent was 4th in a race won by The Short Go who beat Bella Bliss by 2 lengths.
The weeks 4th double header takes place on Friday with seven races at Gowran Park and eight at Dundalk with three main events.
Gowran Park 3.50: Irish Stallion Farms EBF Pat Walsh Memorial Mares Hurdle.
1: Magical Zoe: A lightly-raced horse who picked up her last win at Down Royal in November last year. She was then 2nd in a Grade 2 at the Cheltenham Festival with her final outing being a fifth at Fairyhouse in April. She goes back down in trip on her return and with improvement expected she can take this.
Gowran Park 5.35: Irish Stallion Farms EBF Mucklemeg Mares Flat Race.
2: Aurora Vega: Made it 2 from 2 at Killarney 34 days ago leading from halfway travelling well and going clear from a furlong out easily coming home by 10 lengths. That performance makes this highly promising horse the pick and she can complete the hat-trick.
Dundalk 6.45: Al Basti Equiworld Dubai Diamond Stakes.
4: Piz Badile: A smart horse who was a good 3rd behind Luxembourg in the Tattersalls Gold Cup at The Curragh when last seen in May. He is the class act in this field and if close to his best on his all-weather debut he will be difficult to beat.
