Talking Point can advance AIB claims

TALKING POINT can advance his claims in the €11,000 to-the-winner AIB Bank Stakes at Curraheen Park by taking the third of tonight’s semi-finals.

Trained by Owen McKenna (inset), this promising sort is unbeaten in the stake to date, recovering from a tardy start to follow up his 28.73 first round success in 29.70 last week.

Talking Point is capable of breaking better and a return to an inside trap is another plus.
