On Saturday both my picks won. At The Curragh Carla Ridge made headway from 2 out leading soon after, the 10/3 favourite asserted herself in the closing stages comfortably beating Navassa Island by 10 lengths. Over at Gowran Park Western Fold was 2nd 4 out recovering from a slight mistake to lead from 2 out, the 5/6 favourite kept on well beating Affordale Fury by 4 1/4 lengths.
An 8 race card at Tipperary takes centre stage on Sunday with 2 main events.
3.53: Horse & Jockey Hotel Hurdle (Grade 3.)
1: Gaucher: A fair horse who was last seen finishing 5th in the Galway Hurdle back in July. He led early and was 2nd at halfway, he made no impression before the last keeping on at one pace. He makes his return here for a yard who won this race last year and he can continue their good form.
5.00: ODS Engineering Novice Chase (Grade 3.)
1: Gold Dancer: A promising horse who has improved over fences this year winning twice his latest coming in a Grade 3 at Galway 66 days ago. He recovered from a mistake to sit 3rd at halfway and despite coming under pressure he challenged leading close to home and winning by 2 1/2 lengths. Further improvement is likely and he can complete the hat-trick here.
There are also 7 races at Killarney where in the 2.59 my pick is number 1 Friary Road.
