Consistent Kurbaan looks the best option

THE consistent Kurbaan, representing the very much in-form Kevin Prendergast, can land the Beech Median Auction Race at Fairyhouse this evening.

He again performed with credit in a competitive handicap at Leopardstown last time, taking fourth behind She’s Our Girl.

The form received a timely boost when sixth placed Windsor Dancer scored in fine style at Cork on Monday.

Biggest worry could be John Oxx’s once-raced High Day, particularly if the market speaks in his favour.

He hasn’t been seen since running with a degree of promise behind Catcher In The Rye at Leopardstown back in late March.

Declan Gillespie’s Final Opinion can leave a frustrating bout of placings firmly behind by taking the Derrinstown Stud Apprentice Maiden.

She has plenty in hand at the weights and only has to repeat her three lengths second to well-regarded Behrasia at Limerick last month to get off the mark.

Tim Doyle’s horses are going well and the dropped-in-class Soviet Treat can do the business for him in the Irish Stallion Farms Median Auction Maiden.

The daughter of Ashkalani was far from disgraced when fifth in the Listed event won by Maroochydore at Leopardstown.

At Sligo tonight, Michael Grassick’s Sky To Sea rates a safe wager to break his duck over jumps in the John Perry Maiden Hurdle.

Returning from a break and well supported in the market, he looked sure to score at Limerick recently.

But he was run out of it close home and beaten a short head by Colca Canyon. Sky To Sea should find this assignment a lot easier!
