Wasabi can get punters off to a flier

JOHN OXX’S Wasabi’s House can get punters away to a perfect start by landing the opening Irish Stallion Farms’ EBF Maiden at Dundalk tonight.

She made a promising start on this track two weeks ago and there is every reason to think will build on that.

Nibbled at in the market, the daughter of Dark Angel finished fourth behind Ger Lyons’ Piri Wango, but that only tells part of the story.

The selection could not get a clear run in the straight and was never going to deliver. Compensation, hopefully, awaits.

Ger Lyons’ Solent Ridge is the choice in the dundalkstadium.com Handicap over six furlongs.

He made most of the running when scoring at Gowran Park in September, over a mile, and dropping back in trip should not be a major problem.

David Wachman’s mildly frustrating Azores is the one to beat in the bookingsatdundalkstadium.com Maiden.

She did run well last time, however, when third to Tobar Na Gaoise and Unaccompanied in a handicap at Leopardstown and a repeat of that effort will surely see her go close.

Tony Martin’s Sughera can provide the answer to the Christmas Party Packages At Dundalk Apprentice Handicap, having scored over flights at Tramore on her latest appearance.
