AIDAN AT THE DOUBLE: Aidan O’Brien looks set for a big race double at Leopardstown tonight where his runners dominate in the two Group races on the card.
It’s hard to see beyond the two Aidan O’Brien trained hotpots in the two Group races on tonight’s Leopardstown card.
6:55 Jockey Club Of Turkey Silver Flash Stakes (Group 3) (2yo, Class 1, 7f, 5 runners)
Happily was well beaten behind stable companion September on her debut here but like so many from the stable improved significantly on her second start to win a maiden at the Curragh in fine style. She was value for much more than the official length and three quarters winning margin and should again account for Shalailah who finished second.
Stable companion Easter Lily finished in front of Happily in the race won by September and went on to win over course and distance but jockey bookings tonight suggest Happily is the one with greater scope.
7:30 JRA Tyros Stakes (Group 3) (2yo, Class 1, 7f, 6 runners)
The Pentagon can complete the AOB/Ryan Moore double. He stormed home by eight and a half lengths on his second start and this has been a race farmed by Aidan in recent years with his very best runners.
2016: Churchill
2015: Deauville
2014: Gleneagles
It’s hard to see The Pentagon not making it four in a row.
SHAMROCK’S BETS:
NAP: Happily (6.55 Leopardstown)
NEXT BEST: The Pentagon (7.30 Leopardstown)
