ONCE-raced Dirar is the nap choice in the Anthony Duffy Construction Median Auction Maiden at Dundalk tonight.

Row in with Dirar

The son of King’s Best ran a race rich in promise on his debut at Gowran Park earlier in the month.

Never too far off the pace, Dirar kept going strongly in the closing stages to be beaten a head and a length into third behind Houston Dynimo and Observation Post.

Fourth placed Arizona John has since run well at the Curragh, while the fifth at Gowran, Windsor Place, went on to score on this track.

Baby Blue Eyes can defy top weight in the Cumiskey Real Estates EBF Fillies Race. An admirable sort, she again performed with credit when a close third behind Cheyenne Star and Thoughtless Moment in a Listed event at Naas.

Behind in sixth, beaten about half a length, was Akua’ba, who now reopposes on 4lbs better terms. Baby Blue Eyes, however, is the more reliable proposition.

Eskadron, who showed his liking for this track last time, could crop up again in the CRE Property Management Handicap.

He battled well to take a maiden by a head from Dianella and wasn’t raised by the handicapper for that.

El Diego, down in class following a creditable fourth to Davidii at Dundalk a week ago, is the one to be on in the European Mortages Maiden.

Porto Santana, third to Lady Meagan at Navan on Wednesday, has real prospects in the CRE Rentals Property Nursery. He looks set for a substantial rise in the weights in the future.
