Dancer can waltz away with maiden
The daughter of Victory Note was the medium of some tasty wagers at Limerick earlier in the month.
For most of that seven furlongs it looked money well invested, particularly when she went clear before the straight.
But it wasn’t to be and the flying late surge of eventual winner, Azia, upset the applecart and she grabbed the selection in the final stride to score by a short head. Hopefully, compensation now awaits Dragon Inn Dancer.
Eddie Lynam’s Lady Kia has to be fancied to defy top weight in the Sligo Claiming Race.
She made every yard of the running to score at Limerick, prior to finishig three short heads fourth behind Jemmy John at Roscommon.
Christy Roche’s In Discussion has a leading chance in the Foley’s Bar Handicap Hurdle, even if he was mildly disappointing at Cork last time.
He finished fifth behind Yukon, after going off market leader, and before that was a creditable length second to the in-form Zamnah at Wexford.
Siochain, three lengths runner-up to Zamnah at Kilbeggan a week ago, gets the nod in the Sligo Park Handicap Hurdle.
