Flying Finn was our only winner on Saturday but she was a nice price at 20/1. Santa Savana really should have placed but got hampered at an inopportune moment. However, it was downhill after that. Unfortunately, Paddy The Squire ended up drawn on the wrong side. It would have been interesting to see how Navagio fared from stall 13, I’d imagine connections regret the decision to go to Haydock. I like one at the Curragh tomorrow at decent odds, you can see who I fancy below.
4.25 – Irish Cesarewitch Handicap (Premier)
With rain forecast tomorrow, the ground could be pretty
testing by the time of this race. If it is, I think Enfranchise is capable of
outrunning her odds of 33/1 for Shark Hanlon and Gavin Ryan.
This mare is very talented when she gets her optimum conditions.
She likes a cut in the ground and she likes a trip and she should hopefully get
both of those tomorrow (once the weather forecast is correct). Her form figures
on the flat on soft/heavy ground read 221.
The last time this daughter of Invincible Spirit raced on properly
testing ground was in a 14f listed heat at Gowran. Gavin Ryan, who is in the plate
today, rode and she dotted up by 2l, beating Countess Of Tyrone. They meet again
here and Enfranchise is 1lb better off so I’m not sure why she is 33/1 and the
Twomey horse is only 20s.
In July this mare ran a blinder to finish fifth off 97 in the
QR handicap at Galway on ground that was probably just on the lively side for
her. She stayed on nicely and was 7l behind the winner at the line and she
races off the same mark today.
I’d imagine her next two starts, over hurdles two days later
at Galway and in a Listed heat there over 12f 19 days ago, were runs designed
to keep her ticking over ahead of a shot at this race. I’m sure the Shark will be
keen to go out with a bang with a big win before his ban kicks in, hopefully
Enfranchise can deliver the goods for him at odds of 33/1.
Stevos’ Selection: Enfranchise e/w @ 33/1 (6 places) NAP
