Racing Lee picks his best bets at the Dublin Racing Festival on Monday.
2:25 Leopardstown
WENDROCK (0.5pt EW 5 places
Best odds 9/1 available at time of publishing.
HE CAN’T DANCE (0.5pt EW 5 places
Best odds 9/1 available at time of publishing.
WENDROCK mark has dropped after last season.
A few “staying on” runs over shorter, and last time out over middle distance he was given plenty to do and stayed on strongly from the rear.
This longer trip might just be the catalyst to produce another win on a track he’s a winner at.
He handles the ground and a talented five pound claimer takes the ride.
HE CAN’T DANCE is another Gordon Elliott runner, who is lightly raced, and handles the ground, as well as staying the trip.
He could find the improvement now going handicapping.
4:05 Leopardstown
ADDRAGOOLE (0.5pt EW)
Best odds 8/1 available at time of publishing.
BATTLE OF RIDGEWAY (0.5pt EW 4 places)
Best odds 11/1 available at time of publishing.
ADDRAGOOLE won easily over course and distance at Christmas, and now has five pound claimed off to negotiate some of the ten pound rise.
He travelled sweetly, and if the same vein then can put up a good show.
BATTLE OF RIDGEWAY is another easy winner from last time out, and has more on the plate, but can go well, again if in the same form.

4:40 Leopardstown
CHARISMATIC KID (2pt WIN)
Best odds 11/8 available at time of publishing.
I thought Charismatic Kid looked impressive on debut, making all under soft-to-heavy conditions.
Now trained by Gordon Elliott, I can only envisage more improvement to come now in his new ownership.
Likely to get similar ground, it looks a race lacking depth, so any improvement would see him the one to beat.
ROMEO COOLIO & NASICO HAS - 2pt Double
Best odds 1.87/1 with Unibet available at time of publishing.
ROMEO COOLIO - 2:55
NASICO HAS - 1:50
