Eastern Light ready to get off the mark
David Wachman’s daughter of Danehill Dancer has been mixing it with better company than she meets here and this represents a very suitable opportunity.
The selection was far disgraced in a Listed event at Cork last time, even if only finishing fourth of the five runners.
She was beaten a little over four lengths behind the smart Clondinnery and the speedy sort will be even better suited to dropping down a furlong now.
Added to that is the fact Eastern Light has been given a favourable draw in two and, hopefully, it will be case of out and away.
Tommy Stack’s once-raced Vamizi Island can win the Murphy Sand And Gravel Decorative Auction Maiden.
He was beaten less than a length and half into fourth behind Snow Mountain, Sydney Harbour and Free Art at Limerick, in a contest which has been working out reasonably well.
Ger Lyons’ Bank On Black can defy a 9lbs rise in the weights in the Essential Drogheda Magazine Handicap.
The daughter of Big Bad Bob is on the upgrade, being value a for a bit more than the length and a quarter she had to spare over Blue Dahlia at Tipperary last week.
Another going forward, Fantasy King, who beat Swiftmarc a short head at Leopardstown, is the one to beat in the www.pacon.ie Handicap.
Most interesting runner at Wexford is John Kiely’s Liss Na Tintri in the info@wexfordraces.ie Mares' Maiden Hurdle.
Basically, she has been disappointing since going over jumps, but remains a promising sort and has the capacity to outclass this opposition.
