Gowran Park Race 5 - Gowranpark.ie Maiden
SHAMSUDDIN (8) returned this season with a 4.3L second over 1400m at Fairyhouse ten days ago. Can record his first victory. SLANEY SWAGGER (9) was 0.5L second attempting 1600m at Limerick. Expected to play a role. NO KNEE NEVER (6) finds a good opportunity following a 3.8L third tackling 1600m at this track. MASTER OF THE HUNT (5) is another with strong claims on the back of a 4..8l third in a 1600m maiden at Killarney.
