Brackan set to follow up

Brendan Brackan is the nap choice in the Group 3 Invesco Pension Consultants Desmond Stakes at Leopardstown tonight.

Tough, durable and consistent, the five-year-old is favourably drawn in four and running over his ideal trip, one mile. Ger Lyons’ charge was returning from a little break when taking a Listed event at Cork nine days ago, making all to win easily by three and a half lengths.

That ended up being a modest contest, after four of the original runners failed to meet the engagement.
