We had yet another winner on Sunday , at Dungarvan Point to Point when Toby Ben won the 2nd division of the 5 year olds gelding maiden. We also had a good run on the track with Rockers Field finishing a good 2nd and Gentle Jim finished 3rd both in Limerick. Vardas Partner ran a great race in Leopardstown having led throughout the race to finish 4th behind Rite of Passage in what turned out to be a fantastic race. Rite of Passage is now favorite for the 2mile Supreme Novices in Cheltenham.
We have 2 runners in Navan tomorrow Loch Mor Lad runs at 3.15 in Navan and although we hope he runs into the placings he is carrying top weight and may struggle with this weight on the heavy ground. Finnbennach runs at 2.45 and was unlucky when unseating his jockey in Thurlus on his previous run, we hope he jumps around safely.
We have a good line up of entries for Thurlus on Thursday as well as entries in all the weekend meetings. Tally Em Up will run in the Grade 2 Mare's steeplechase and hopefully she will be in with a good chance after her win there only a week ago. Check back again after declarations tomorrow for the line up in Thurlus.
