Unlucky in running when second at the Curragh on Derby weekend, LOVE BILLY BOY can gain compensation. Stepping up to a mile for only the second time in his career, the Gerard O'Leary-trained gelding finished strongly having been denied a clear run. Although now racing over an additional furlong, the four-year-old gives the impression that he should be capable of staying the trip, especially on a turning track such as this. State Actor, who finished a place behind the selection in that aforementioned race, also has leading claims. Another who suffered an interrupted passage, the five-year-old is back on a competitive mark. Slieve Binnian, winner of that Curragh race, should again hold every chance. |
MISSISSIPPI RIVER has been steadily progressing and came clear of the remainder when runner up on his handicap return last time. He's only 3lb higher here and with an easier lead likely he can continue his improvement at the expense of Slieve Binnian. That rival has been in fine form since the autumn on varying surfaces and despite a 5lb rise for his latest victory he remains well treated on his AW efforts. Veteran top weight Coeur d'Or has dropped to just 1lb above his last winning mark despite some solid recent performances including when meeting trouble last time and can compete for a place. |

Unlucky in running when second at the Curragh on Derby weekend, LOVE BILLY BOY can gain compensation. Stepping up to a mile for only the second time in his career, the Gerard O'Leary-trained gelding finished strongly having been denied a clear run. Although now racing over an additional furlong, the four-year-old gives the impression that he should be capable of staying the trip, especially on a turning track such as this. State Actor, who finished a place behind the selection in that aforementioned race, also has leading claims. Another who suffered an interrupted passage, the five-year-old is back on a competitive mark. Slieve Binnian, winner of that Curragh race, should again hold every chance. |
MISSISSIPPI RIVER has been steadily progressing and came clear of the remainder when runner up on his handicap return last time. He's only 3lb higher here and with an easier lead likely he can continue his improvement at the expense of Slieve Binnian. That rival has been in fine form since the autumn on varying surfaces and despite a 5lb rise for his latest victory he remains well treated on his AW efforts. Veteran top weight Coeur d'Or has dropped to just 1lb above his last winning mark despite some solid recent performances including when meeting trouble last time and can compete for a place. |
