Rules looks set to rule
At Wexford tonight Carmody can continue his fine form by landing the Clonard Maiden with All That Rules.
The son of Galileo hinted at having a fair amount of ability in two outings for Henry Cecil and made a solid start for his new handler at Leopardstown 15 days ago.
He was noted doing his best work at the end of nine furlong, finishing four lengths runner-up behind Colliding Worlds.
In the Irish Oaks at the Curragh last Sunday Colliding Worlds performed more than respectably while the third at Leopardstown, Wonderful, went on to score at Killarney.
Aidan O’Brien’s Cabin makes a belated seasonal debut in the Irish Stallion Farms’ EBF Fillies Maiden and, hopefully, the market will speak in her favour, in what is a weak heat.
She ran twice as a juvenile, proving a bit disappointing when failing to justify favouritism at Fairyhouse, after starting off by chasing home subsequent Epsom Oaks heroine, Was, at the Curragh.
Wot A Shot, who bolted in at Naas on Wednesday evening, has obvious claims, under a mandatory 5lbs penalty, in the Enniscorthy Handicap.
At Down Royal Amira’s Prince gets the vote to win the most interesting contest on the card, the Her Majesty’s Plate. He shaped as if crying out for further when a close third to Warwick Avenue over ten furlongs at Fairyhouse.
