1/9/24 Tipperary

 Saturday's only winner at The Curragh was Dreamy. The 6/5 favourite was 3rd early improving to lead narrowly from a furlong out, she extended her advantage in the closing stages beating Fiery Lucy by 1 1/2 lengths. In the other Group 3 Hanalia was 2nd. The 5/2 shot recovered from a poor start making progress from 2 out. She was 3rd inside the final furlong taking 2nd in the last strides, Tarawa won by 1 1/4 lengths. The Irish Cambridgeshire saw Blues Emperor finish 18th with Wigmore Street winning beating State Actor by a head.

 September begins with 8 races at Tipperary on Sunday where there are 2 features. 

3.30: Coolmore Stud No Nay Never Fairy Bridge Stakes (Group 3)

7: Super Sox: A horse with promise who picked up a career best win in the listed Platinum Stakes at Cork 16 days ago. She made headway from 2 out leading soon after staying on strongly in the final 100 yards and coming home by 1 3/4 lengths. She definitely has more to offer and can complete a hat-trick here.

4.00: Irish Stallion Farms EBF Abergwaun Stakes.

7: Little Queenie: A useful horse who has 2 wins from 5 runs this year her last being a career best at Dundalk 17 days ago. She disputed the lead 1 1/2 out going to the front in the final 100 yards eventually winning by 1 1/2 lengths. She is going in the right direction and can follow up here.
