The pick of Friday’s action comes from Down Royal, where CARRIGMOORNASPRUCE (2:02) is fancied to make it 2-2 over hurdles in the mares’ Grade 3. A smart bumper performer, she won well on debut at Listowel (placed horses both won next time) and Sean O’Keeffe takes over in the saddle. Gordon Elliott usually enjoys a big two days at this fixture and invariably starts his leading novice chaser in the beginners. The strapping ROMEO COOLIO (3:47) is taken to make it nine winners in 10 years for Elliott here, with the step up in trip sure to suit the Supreme Novices’ third. The Grade 1 winning hurdler won his maiden hurdle at this fixture and is preferred to Koktail Divin.
Friday’s selections:
2:02 Down Royal – Carrigmoornaspruce; 8/11 Betfred
3:47 Down Royal – Romeo Coolio; 1/2 Betfred
