Windgap Sky looks one to note

THE Track Supporters A5 Stakes swings into action at Youghal tonight and Windgap Sky is one to note in heat two.

In the wars from outside traps in two starts last term, the selection got off the mark from an inside draw on his return earlier this month.

Quickly into his stride, Declan Byrne’s runner made every post a winning one in 29.76.

Windgap Sky has plenty of scope for improvement and a rails draw is a major plus.

The consistent Donals Black Ace reads the main danger. This four-times winner takes a drop in class here after finishing an unlucky fourth in 29.51 in A4 company last time.

Compass Roberta can continue Midleton owner-trainer Stephen Wadsworth’s winning run by taking the opening heat.

She boasts an impressive strike, winning nine of her 26 starts and finishing in the frame in 10 others.

Denied a clear run when a beaten favourite in a sprint at Clonmel last Sunday, Compass Roberta can gain quick compensation here.

Meanwhile the aptly-named Skill To Rule can land the A5 Stakes final at Curraheen Park.

A runaway 29.55 winner on his only start last year at Youghal, Skill To Rule followed up in fine style on his reappearance at Cork last month, making all in 29.01.

Tom O’Neill’s promising sort can continue on the upgrade at the expense of 29.54 heat winner Boherash Solas.
