Leave it to Laura

MOVEALONG LAURA looks the solution in the final of the Bill Smiddy Stake at Youghal tonight.

She really sparkled in the semi-final, flying to the bend and then running away from the field to win in 29.30. She had 13 lengths to spare from Becky's Pace and her early pace (4.09 to the line) should ensure she bags the €1,000 prize for Willie Barry of Kilmallock. Incidentally, back in October she raced in exalted company when unplaced behind Guinness Trophy favourite Boherduff Light.

Rustys Rebel, on a hat trick-mission, is the obvious danger and was also fast away last week when winning in 29.52.
