Carlow Spice may prove too hot for Rebel

WITH the sorting out process completed last week, the picture looks much clearer for the Barrys Tea 750 at Curraheen Park tonight.

Carlow Spice is one who should show benefit from the first round run. Although always in the firing line, she was chopped off a few times after taking an inside route on the way to a 41.72 victory. If Paul Hennessy’s bitch gets any sort of run in the second semi-final, she should show a big improvement .

The danger comes in the shape of Hennessy’s other runner in the race, Property Rebel. He was having his first look at the track last week and ran on well, beaten two and a half lengths by Lemon Rambo in 41.76. Perfectly drawn in one, he rates a huge danger.
