Improving Togoville can repeat trick at Dundalk

Togoville did us a favour at Dundalk two weeks ago and it makes sense to be with him again in the Happy Birthday Anne Hughes Handicap on the polytrack tonight.

Improving Togoville can repeat trick at Dundalk

Trained in Co Armagh by Greek national Georgios Pakidis, the five-year-old is on the upgrade and fancied to defy a 7lbs rise in the weights.

He made every yard of the running last time to score by an easy four lengths and the same tactics, from a favourable draw, will surely be adopted again.

His latest success came over seven furlongs, but a mile is no problem to Togoville.

Equation Of Time represents the main danger but Togoville is definitely the one to beat.

Aidan O’Brien’s Song Of Love can take the six furlongs Elusive Pimpernel Maiden, even if there is the worry the trip may prove on the short side for him.

He ran here a week ago over a mile, failing by a neck behind the heavily backed market leader, Arif.

The Fastnet Rock gelding came to win his race in the final furlong and, perhaps, dropping back in distance might be in his favour.

Sabrina Harty’s Ned’s Indian might provide the answer to the Fundraising Made Easy At Dundalk Stadium Handicap.

Beaten two and three-quarter lengths into fourth behind Sharjah (rec. 15lbs) here last time, Ned’s Indian can reverse the placings on altered terms and stepping up another furlong and a half in trip.
