Ahimsa looks the answer
Aidan O’Brien’s filly made no show first time up at the Curragh, but performed much better at Cork six days ago.
That Cork contest was won in good style by the smart Absolute Crackers, with Ahimsa never threatening at any stage to get in a blow.
The daughter of Holy Roman Emperor, however, was noted doing good work at the finish, indicating her turn should not be long delayed. The fact she has been handed the best draw in one is a bonus.
Eddie Lynam is responsible for half of the four-strong field in the Group Discounts At Dundalk Claiming Race and his Spin Of A Coin is readily preferred.
The selection is now running over his ideal distance, having failed to get home when fifth in the 12 furlongs handicap won by Keep It Cool on this track last month. Prior to that, over an extended ten furlongs at Dundalk, he failed by three parts of a length to concede Prince Of Fashion 9lbs.
