Le Cadre Noir poised to strike

NOW that Dermot Weld’s horses have struck form again, he had a treble at Leopardstown on Wednesday night, it should pay dividends to keep him very much on our side and his Italian import, Le Cadre Noir, gets the nap to land the Listed Belgrave Stakes at Fairyouse tomorrow.

A more than useful sort in his native country, the Danetime colt has produced two solid performances since arriving in Ireland.

He started in a Group 3 at the Curragh, finishing fourth behind three English horses, Tax Free, Benbaun and Desert Lord.
