UK Horse Racing Tips: Dundalk

With the form of her recent C&D win in a similar grade having been boosted in the interim, ECLAIRAGE should be capable of following up. Smartly away from the stalls, the Danny Murphy-trained filly made all to score comfortably by half a length. A 4lb rise doesn't appear too harsh given how well the race has worked out subsequently. Skillman Ave, who finished a staying-on third in that contest, has a chance at the revised weights. Gavin Cromwell's filly has plenty of experience, which should stand to her here. Just Jump would be of definite interest off a mark of 72 if settling better than last time. The Andrew Slattery-trained gelding could be suited to this drop back to 5f.
Prediction : 1st Just Jump 2nd Skillman Ave 3rd null

JACKIE BROWN holds leading claims now that she drops back to 6f. Runner-up here over an extra furlong last time, the Tony Martin-trained filly held every chance before weakening inside the last. Although consistent from 5f to 7f, the four-year-old gives the impression that this could be her optimum distance. Champion apprentice James Ryan takes a valuable 3lb off her back. C&D winner I'm Spartacus has been running well in recent weeks. The Ado McGuinness-trained gelding will appreciate the extra furlong having run on strongly over 5f here last time. Jazzy Dancer would be a threat to all if afforded an easy lead, while Devil's Angel would be a serious threat if getting a run.
Prediction : 1st Jackie Brown 2nd Im Spartacus 3rd Jazzy Dancer

Back over 7f, PERFECT JUDGEMENT can strike on what is only his second start for trainer Stephen Thorne. Held up to get the trip when fifth over a mile here last time, the three-year-old can be ridden a bit closer to the pace on this occasion. Well treated by these race conditions, he can register a third career success. Naas maiden winner Whispersinthewind is thoroughly unexposed at this level. Twice placed on the Polytrack last winter, the Donnacha O'Brien-trained filly has to be respected. Punk Poet is at his best over a mile, but the Eddie Lynam-trained gelding would be dangerous to underestimate if allowed too much of a lead under Chris Hayes.
Prediction : 1st Perfect Judgement 2nd Whispersinthewind 3rd Punk Poet

Fourth on his debut over 7f here last month, AEON'S AEGIS should appreciate stepping up to a mile. The Joseph O'Brien-trained colt was held up in the early stages before staying on well up the straight to get within six lengths of the winner. Granted normal improvement from that initial outing, the son of Not This Time can open his account. Habari showed huge improvement from his first outing to take fifth here over this trip. If he can take a similar step forward from that run, he should be involved at the finish. What's Your Game shaped well enough on his debut at the Curragh to suggest he can win his maiden soon.
Prediction : 1st Aeons Aegis 2nd Habari 3rd Whats Your Game

The twice-raced CAROLINA JETSTREAM can make it third-time lucky for the Adrian Murray stable. Third on her debut in what was arguably a strong maiden at the Curragh, the daughter of Pinatubo ran a big race when fourth on her first run on the Polytrack here last month. With the benefit of those experiences to call upon, she should be good enough to win. Stepping up to a mile for the first time in her career also looks a wise move. Recent runner-up Dancing Teapot is another who should benefit from the extra furlong. The Joseph O'Brien-trained filly flashed home when only just denied here earlier this month. Jamie Spencer is an intriguing booking on the Henry De Bromhead-trained Nuit. Third on her debut at Naas last month, the Sea The Stars filly is entitled to be sharper now.
Prediction : 1st Carolina Jetstream 2nd Dancing Teapot 3rd Nuit

Well backed prior to finishing mid-division on her debut at Naas in August, STUDY THE LADY is likely to be a different proposition here. Ger Lyons has given the filly plenty of time to recover from those exertions and it is surely significant that he runs her again before the end of her juvenile campaign. Galway runner-up Permission Tospeak holds every chance for the in-form David Marnane yard. Only just denied on her most recent start, the daughter of Blue Point should be bang there under Leigh Roche. With an official rating of 78, Calrissiana sets the standard. A gradual improver who ran her best race to date when third at Leopardstown last time, the Too Darn Hot filly merits consideration.
Prediction : 1st Study The Lady 2nd Permission Tospeak 3rd Calrissiana

Runner-up in a stronger contest here last time, LETIZA can gain some form of compensation. The Henry De Bromhead-trained filly lost her race in the stalls, giving away many lengths at the start. Still having plenty to do early in the straight, she stayed on strongly in a manner that suggested she would appreciate stepping back up to this distance. Granted a better break, the four-year-old should prove hard to beat. Also taking minor honours in a better grade on his most recent run here, the Tony Martin-trained Pralognan has to hold strong claims. Although dropping down in trip, the top-weight should have the pace to cope with it. Wrecking Ball Paul is one who the others would do well not to allow an easy time of it on the front end.
Prediction : 1st Letiza 2nd Pralognan 3rd Wrecking Ball Paul

Top-weight ENOUGH ALREADY can resume winning ways now faced with this significant step back up in trip. Noted staying on late in mid-division over 7f at the Curragh last time, the Ado McGuinness-trained gelding moves up five furlongs here. However, having been placed over this trip earlier in his career in Britain, the veteran is worth taking a chance with in what is arguably the weakest race he has contested for some time. Thegooseiscooked has shaped well enough on a couple of starts here to suggest she is worthy of consideration in first-time cheekpieces. The mare returns to this trip having shown ability over shorter since her return from an absence. Turf Range, who can run well fresh, is another to consider in a competitive heat.
Prediction : 1st Enough Already 2nd Thegooseiscooked 3rd Turf Range
