In-form King can rule

THE in-form Uptown King can land the Ned Walsh Memorial A1 Stake, one of three finals at tonight’s all-sponsored meeting at Youghal.

The selection was the star of the opening round, showing his rivals a clean pair of heels when recording a clear-cut 29.32 success.

As that was his first outing at this circuit, Uptown King has scope for improvement and can again make light of a poor draw.
