NAAS AND TRAMORE: Flat and jumps racing from Naas and Tramore on Monday on the eve of the Punchestown Festival.
We’ll hopefully start Punchestown week with a winning NAP – don’t miss my race by race previews on BETDAQ TIPS for the big meeting which gets underway tomorrow.
The big race at Naas tonight is the Listed Woodlands Stakes over five furlongs.
It looks a competitive renewal but I am quite keen on the chances of the Aidan O’Brien trained The Happy Prince who has the benefit of a recent start.
He finished fifth in the Group 3 Gladness Stakes at the Curragh last time out and it will be interesting to see how he gets on dropped back in trip to the minimum here.
This is his first ever try at the five furlong trip but he has shown plenty of pace before and could be allowed to bowl along at the front. Last season he led the way here in a six furlong Group race and was only pegged back close home.
Fort Del Oro was ultra-consistent over six furlongs last season but is another one who is trying the sprint trip for the first time and she is having her first race since October.
