Sunday's best at The Curragh came from Auguste Rodin who was 2nd, the 11/10 favourite was in midfield early improving to go 2nd two out. He led narrowly soon after but was passed a furlong from the finish by White Birch who won by 3 lengths. In the other two races both Rogue Millennium and Opera Singer were 3rd, Ocean Jewel took the Lanwades Stud Stakes beating Goldana by 1 1/4 lengths with Fallen Angel winning the Irish 1,000 Guineas beating A Lilac Rolla by 2 3/4 lengths.
There are 7 races at Ballinrobe on Monday night with 2 main events.
5.30: McHale Mayo Handicap Hurdle.
2: Western Walk: A promising horse who was a good 4th in a listed race at Punchestown when last seen 23 days ago. He was 9th at halfway improving to dispute the lead entering the straight, he moved to the front soon after being passed in the last 50 yards. That was a more competitive contest and on form he can return to winning ways here.
6.30: McHale Mayo National Handicap Chase.
13: Romeo Magico: A lightly-raced horse who was a creditable 2nd in a hunters chase at Killarney 2 weeks ago. He led for a second time at the 7th but after not being fluent in the closing stages he was passed going down by 2 1/2 lengths. He makes his handicap chase debut here and with more to come he can go one better.
