GRO UP SUNDAY 19TH JULY, 2020 CURRAGH RACECOURSE 1

WELCOME

TO

THE CURRAGH Where Champions Are Made Good Afternoon, Good Afternoon and welcome to the Curragh for Day 2 of the Juddmonte Irish Oaks Weekend. While we are sorry that we can’t welcome our supporters to the Curragh, we are pleased that you will all be able to engage with the Curragh in so many different ways. We are very pleased with the response to our new digital race card which allows people to get some of the race day experience in their own homes.

Today we have a great afternoon of racing with plenty of variety.

We have three group races, the Airlie Stud Stakes, Holden Plant Rentals Sapphire Stakes and the Kilboy Estate Stakes. These are well supported with a couple of good quality maidens and three nice handicaps and we are very grateful for the support of IEBF, Manguard Plus, DMG Media and Big Picture Communications for adding their names to these races Sponsors make a very valuable contribution to racing and we are very fortunate to have great sponsors supporting us today. These are challenging times for all of us and we are very grateful to you all for your generous support of the Curragh.

I would particularly like to thank the owners with runners here today. The owners make an invaluable contribution to racing, we are very grateful to you for your support and look forward to having you back in the Curragh soon. We also miss our members and all our loyal customers who create great atmosphere in the Curragh, and we look forward to welcoming them all back as soon as it is safe to do so.

This has been a very difficult time for everybody as we work our way through Covid-19. On behalf of the Board and all my colleagues at the Curragh, I would like to say a very big thank you to our frontline workers who have done such a wonderful job in getting us all through this. Thankfully, we appear to be dealing with this challenge well as a country and this could not have happened without the efforts of these heroes.

I hope that you and your family are well and please stay safe and I look forward to welcoming you back to the Curragh before too long.

PAT KEOGH Chief Executive

The Handicapper allots ratings to horses once they have taken part in a sufficient number of races to enable the Handicapper to make a numerical assessment of each horse’s ability. The principal purpose of the ratings is to determine the weight to be carried by each runner in handicap races, with the handicappers aiming to provide each participant with an equal chance based on its best recent form under its optimum conditions. A horse rated 100, for example, would be set to carry 1lb more than a horse rated 99 (ignoring penalties and allowances). The ratings published in the racecard for handicap races are the ratings that were used to calculate the weight to be carried by each horse, whilst in non-handicapped races the rating shown is that each runner at the time that the entries for the race were confirmed. Any subsequently published change rating, either up or down, is shown in brackets following the rating.

CURRAGH COMMENT SNOWFALL really caught the eye when finishing third to Frenetic and Mother Earth over an inadequate trip on her debut at Navan last month. The daughter of Deep Impact was then badly interfered with over C&D three weeks ago and she can be given another chance this afternoon.

Sister Rosetta finished second in the most recent of those contests and she is likely to be the main threat to the selection. April Showers and Loch Lein lack race experience but they merit consideration given their pedigrees.

No corresponding race last year.

CURRAGH COMMENT SONAIYLA collected Listed honours against her own sex at Cork earlier this month and could defy a big weight to go in again here for Paddy Twomey. A six-figure purchase out of Mick Halford’s yard last winter, the four-year-old looks a shrewd buy and won’t mind going back up in trip. Music To My Ears beat a smart filly over further here last time and remains well handicapped, while Orchid Gardens (fourth) was behind her last time but has plenty of scope for improvement.

CURRAGH COMMENT Aidan O’Brien has won five of the last seven renewals of this contest and saddles a strong duo in Mother Earth, a Group 3 winner at Naas on her latest start, and More Beautiful, a half-sister to Saxon Warrior who attempts to bounce back from a slightly disappointing effort at Royal Ascot. However, the pair will need to be at their best to stop FRENETIC, who was a runaway winner of a Listed contest here over 5f last month and the extra furlong is unlikely to inconvenience Ger Lyons’ filly.

CURRAGH COMMENT Make A Challenge has a real love affair with this venue and Denis Hogan’s progressive sprinter landed his fourth track victory when taking the Listed Midsummer Sprint Stakes last weekend.

He seems sure to be thereabouts once again, but preference is for the raiding A’ALI, who was back to his best when taking the Group 3 Coral Charge at Sandown. Simon & Ed Crisford’s three-year-old was a top performer at two and has the chance to establish himself as one of the sprint division’s best operators. Southern Hills can’t be ignored dropping back in trip, while Naas runner-up Rapid Reaction and Jessie Harrington’s filly Punita Arora both hold place possibilities.

WIN: A’ALI

DANGER: MAKE A CHALLENGE

HORSE WELFARE - A PRIORITY At every race meeting there are specially qualified equine veterinary surgeons on duty to look after the wellbeing of all the horses racing. There is a vet in attendance at the start of each race who, follows the horses throughout the race and is quickly on hand if a casualty occurs.

It is normal procedure to erect screens around any horse receiving veterinary treatment. This allows the veterinary surgeon some privacy to fully assess the horses’ injuries and race goers should not assume the worst if screens are erected around an injured horse.

The Blue Cross ambulance is always present to transport the horse back to the stable yard for further treatment if necessary.

A second veterinary surgeon is in attendance in the stable yard to assess and treat any horses requiring such attention post race. The horses’ welfare is always our priority.

CURRAGH COMMENT LEMISTA has returned in rude health for Ger Lyons this year and backed up her Group 3 win at Naas in March with a Listed victory at Gowran last month. Ger Lyons’ charge could face stern resistance from Leopardstown Group 3 scorer One Voice, though the latter is dropping back from 1m 2f so she may just have her measure. Lovelier and Ridenza have shown enough ability to merit inclusion on the shortlist and look the most likely contenders for the bronze medal.

No corresponding race last year.

CURRAGH COMMENT Fame And Acclaim returns to handicap company after winning a rated race with ease at Cork.

He’s now 12lb higher than when second at Naas earlier this month, while prolific handicap winner Star Of Cashel is up a total of 25lb for his three successes. There are some unexposed types lurking lower down the list, including Dermot Weld’s Baraniya, a winner at Roscommon last time, and FRANK ARTHUR. Ger Lyons’ gelding has improved with each of his three runs and did the job well at Roscommon last time. A mark of 81 might underestimate him.

WIN: FRANK ARTHUR

RACE SEVEN

No corresponding race last year.

CURRAGH COMMENT Monaasib took giant strides forward from his first to second start and may improve again for the fitting of a tongue-tie, while first-time blinkered Hyde Park Barracks and Joseph O’Brien’s Magnanimous also bring solid form to the table. Any market support for the Ger Lyons/Colin Keane representative Anjalawi could well be worth noting, but a chance is taken on another newcomer in the shape of LAY IT OUT. This daughter of Oasis Dream cost €120,000 as a yearling and represents a stable that have been flying with their juvenile runners so far this season.

WIN: LAY IT OUT

CURRAGH COMMENT PULSE OF SHANGHAI was tried over different trips last year with his sole victory coming over 5f at Down Royal last August. His subsequent effort in a handicap saw him bump into a well-treated rival here over 6f and the drop to 5f could see him make a winning debut for Kieran Cotter. Powersville won well at Sligo on her latest start and has the assistance of Ben Coen’s 3lb claim, while Miacomet, second at Navan earlier in the month, and Boughtinthedark appeal most of the remainder.
