Soho can storm home

PUNTERS have been set a real poser in the final of the Kasko A3. Heres The Deal would appear well drawn along the inside but her record from the inside is none too inspiring (one win from five outings) and, given that she's not always alert at trap-rise, she may need luck negotiating a trouble-free passage.

Soho can storm home

Soho Storm is a youngster with potential to find further improvement and he could prove the one to beat. Denis Fitzgerald's pup should be close to the speed in the early stages and the strong-running sort can stamp him authority on proceedings from halfway. Heres The Deal should be the one to chase him home.

Soho Storm's trainer could be back in the winner's enclosure a quarter of an hour later when Mumhan Aris takes his place in the first semi-final of the O'Riordan Brothers' Tarmacadam A1. Despite a perilous draw, the veteran tracker continues in superb heart and he can overcome his housing with his trademark lightning break.

He's certain to make his way straight for the rails but he has the speed to clear the field and should make it victory number 27 of a terrific career. Broadstrand Dan looks well drawn on the rails and can follow the selection home.

In the second semi-final, the value could lie with the lightly raced Rising Flyer. A dog of real potential, he showed plenty of promise on his comeback last Saturday night and, if showing the benefit of that run, he could be very hard to beat. The prolific pair, Fear Gorm and Paid Paddy, rate big dangers.

In the final of the ISM-D School of Motoring Tri-Distance, there could be real value in siding with Oakfront Manuka. Danielles Sky is a worthy favourite and will prove hard to beat but the selection has been crying out for the step up to this trip and could make his stamina pay.

Chris and John Morrissey's dog is yet to win a race but there's no doubting his potential and his superb finishing speed might just be enough to reel in likely leader Danielles Sky.
