Dundalk Race 9 - July Stakes A3 525 Semi-Final
WIFFENS GOLD (2) boasts a consistent overall record including three wins from 12 starts, the latest hitting the minor money when second (29.16) over 480m at this track. Rarely misses off this trap. Happy to have him on top this line-up. STEFANS FATHEAD (6) jumps from trap 6 for the first time after placing latest at this track (28.98) in an A2. Solid record here winning two races. Will give a great sight again. LONGRANGE COCO (1) was an impressive winner last time in quickest of the meeting when scoring by one length (29.16) at this track. Harder here but expected to measure up. OISIN MAC (5) will need to run right up to last start to feature again.

Unplaced two runs back then made impressive progress last time to be beaten just 2 lengths into second over 480m at this track. Heading the right way looks well placed to take this out.

Got back early in the race last start when third over 480m at this track. Before that won by 0.8 lengths at this track (29.29) beating Cloran Ace in an A5 on June 27. This looks too tough.

Moderate effort last start when he finished 4th in an A3 on May 16 over 480m at Shelbourne Park behind Getup Me Izzy beaten 10 lengths (29.60). Cannot enthuse on this occasion.

Good effort to score in a S2 by nose at this track over 366m (21.60). Makes appeal on the back of that latest win.

Turned in a much better performance last start when third over 480m at this track in an A2. Has the early speed to land on the pace and can stick on. Should prove hard to beat.
