There has been sustained support for Takashi Kodama's two runners at Dundalk this evening. Hanamizuki (7.30), a newcomer by Motivator, has been backed from 12/1 into 8/1 to make a winning debut under Declan McDonagh while Aaronkayzo (8.30) has tumbled in price from 20/1 into 7/1 for the second division of the Irish Stablestaff Handicap.

Aaronkayzo is making his handicap debut after 425 days off the track. Thebarberkelly (8.00) is another to attract strong support at Dundalk this evening. The Peter McCreery trained 5-y-o has not run on the flat since October last year and has shown little in two recent outings over hurdles, but is now as short as 7/1 from opening quotes of 33/1 this morning.
