Critic can rock

Rock Critic might make his listed race breakthrough in the corkracecourse.ie Navigation Stakes in Cork today.

The Pivotal gelding has proven a tremendous money-spinner for Dermot Weld and the Moyglare Stud Farm, scoring six times in handicap company, in addition to producing an impressive performance in his only hurdles start, at this year’s Galway Festival.

Rock Critic entered listed company for the first time in Killarney in August and finished a close fourth to Soon, just behind one of today’s rivals Barack, which has been beaten twice in the intervening weeks.
