There’s a fairly lively market for the rated race at 5.25 with the weakness of morning favourite San Martino (7/4 out to 3s) leading to support for a couple of his rivals. Zephron a winner at the Curragh in May, is 11/4 from 6/1 and John Murphy’s Acquiescent is into 4/1 from 15/2 with the betting currently headed by Star Harbour at 9/4.
Murphy came away from Killarney with a double yesterday (beaten a nose for a treble) and it’s no surprise to see support for another of his horses, Earl Of Tyrone in the 1m3f 3-y-o handicap at 7.25.
Having his first run since being gelded and fitted with a hood, Oisin Orr’s mount is 7/2 from 7/1. Fozzy Stack’s handicap debutant Sanosuke by Galileo, is not without his backers either and is 8/1 from 12s.
The hat-tricking seeking Franno 5lb well-in under a mandatory penalty after winning at Fairyhouse on Sunday, is 5/2 from 10/3 for the concluding 1m 3f (45-65) handicap at 7.55.
Gerry Keane ’s filly is second favourite behind 2/1 market leader Double Talkin Jive who’s making his first appearance since joining Willie Mullins’ stable and is partnered by Keane’s son, Colin.
