John Oxx looks to have found a good opportunity for Agent Zigzag to get off the mark in the Pitchsupplies.ie Maiden over an extended mile at Killarney today.
The four-year-old gelding has a couple of placed efforts to his name and was only beaten by a neck at Cork earlier in the month.
He is improving with each run and, with the trip and ground in his favour, ought to account for his six rivals.
The Irish Stallion Farms EBF Median Auction Fillies Race pits three last-time-out winners against each other. Aiseolas was a wide-margin scorer at Gowran Park, but this will be her third race in 11 days so she may be vulnerable to Patrick Prendergast’s Raintree who avails of Daniel Redmond’s 5lb claim.
Prendergast and Redmond also have a live chance with Triple Sec who goes in the John Lane & Sons Handicap.
She gamely won by a nose in Leopardstown last month and Redmond’s claim offsets her 5lb rise in the weights. Elysian Plains could improve enough to score under Colin Keane in the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Median Auction (C&G) Maiden.
He was a decent third in Navan on debut and the runner-up, Southern France, franked the form in good style at Leopardstown on Sunday. Camile is gunning for a hat-trick in the Dublin Coach Handicap. She has gone up 18lb since starting her winning run in Navan last month, but the handicapper may not have caught up with her yet.
French-bred Sil Ver Klass catches the eye off a mark of 57 in the Leane’s Tool Hire Handicap after a runner-up finish in a handicap hurdle at Limerick in April. Law Girl is another switching codes when she contests the Portwest Killarney Race.
Having reached a mark of 125 over hurdles, Willie Mullins’ charge can make her presence felt with Keane booked.
