Dundalk Race Fields - 20th Apr 2024

There are few more obvious than PAVILION GOLD (trap 3) all meeting and he certainly looks worth a bet to lead these rivals a merry dance come the wire. The four-draw isn't expected to prove a problem for Jimelle (trap 4), who looks a danger. Rolo Bucks (trap 1) has looked good enough in practice to be competitive in a race of this nature.

SARAHS BRUNO (trap 2) is presented with an excellent opportunity to score and he shouldn't be letting the side down if able to take up a prominent position early. Doff The Trilby (trap 3) looks dangerous but it's in the lap of the gods whether he can get loose from this slot. The task facing Raydol Rocket (trap 5) looks within scope so he should play a part in the finish.

The formbook points to MISSY EMMA (trap 6) giving a solid account against these rivals and many will join in with her bid for victory. The chances of Beretta Shelton (trap 2) are fairly obvious but he may find the selection a stumbling block. It could pay to keep a watchful eye on Cue Club (trap 4) as he could make the money.

The path to success for RAVENSWOOD BIRDY (trap 2) could be a smooth one today, especially if she becomes engaged the moment the lids ping open. Judged on her qualifying efforts, Loskeran Liberty (trap 4) should be opening her account sooner rather than later. Fridays Isabel (trap 5) is not lacking skills but may be requiring a few of these to have off days.

The chance of LETTING YE KNOW (trap 6) shouldn't be underestimated and, with a trouble-free passage looking likely, he gets the nod to hit the tape first. Regret Nothing (trap 4) goes to traps in good spirits after a tenacious victory and can keep the selection busy. Hendos Dream (trap 3) lacks a wealth of track knowledge, but he isn't out of it.

DRUMCOVE CLARA (trap 2) is certainly one of the leading hopes in this contest and she will hopefully get the job done by kicking in the turbo mid-race. Loughside Best (trap 6) may not tick as many boxes as the selection, but marks a fair few and is feared. The percentage play is to include Beretta Miller (trap 5) in combination wagers.

RUFUS DA ROOSTER (trap 1) could be ready to pump up the volume after some good rehearsals as this doesn't appear the stiffest of debut assignments. Congress Galaxy (trap 5) may find the selection too hot, but he should run well nonetheless. The true extent of what Bunkers Pass (trap 4) is capable of remains hidden so she is for considering.

AROUND THE BAY (trap 1) takes the eye here. Although needing to tread carefully through the opening metres, she should have too much speed for these. Beretta Brandi (trap 4) holds as good a chance as any but may need the gaps to appear which aren't assured. Altmore Venus (trap 6) could run well and is the one most likely to topple the principals.

SEVERAL SEVENS (trap 5) can be first to clap eyes on the winning line here providing he is in there pitching as the contest really starts to unfold. Beretta Kadie (trap 2) makes a fair bit of appeal and won't be far away with a hassle-free journey. Naphill (trap 3) will do better in time round here but she is shaping up okay.
