Sgt Rock can make it third time lucky in maiden

Sgt Rock should make it third-time-lucky in the Irish Stallion Farms 2-Y-0 Maiden in Dundalk tonight.

The Charles O’Brien-trained colt has acquitted himself well in two outings over seven furlongs here. And, likely to be suited by this drop in trip, his solid form and experience of the polytrack should make him difficult to beat.

An unconsidered 20/1 shot for his debut, he finished a promising third to Wychwood Warrior and built on that effort when reappearing two weeks later, again filling third berth, behind the 77-rated Indian Tomahawk.
