Conditions ideal for Famous Name

THE classy Famous Name can prove too strong for Steinbeck in the Group 3 Jockey Club Of Turkey Stakes at Leopardstown tonight.

Conditions ideal for Famous Name

Dermot Weld’s five-year-old is at his best with some cut in the ground and it seems certain will have his ideal conditions. Successful three times last season, Famous Name is unbeaten in two outings this campaign, although neither test was overly exacting.

That said, however, he made heavy weather of scrambling to a short head defeat of the well-exposed Rock Jock on this track last time. The surface was much too quick for him on that occasion, though, and it would be wrong to read too much into the bare result.
