Waterford Race 8 - 525 Yds (A2)
COMICAL DUBH (4) was strongly fancied last time but finished second (29.26), beaten 9 lengths. One of the leading chances. EYUP SAM (1) was in the minors two back (28.70) at this track but ran below best last time there, finishing 6th. Must be included in calculations. BALLYGUR POOKIE (6) was well fancied last time on the strength of his recent form but could only manage third (29.06) at this track. Overdue and is among the main hopes. SLANEYSIDE ACE (3) showed plenty of dash to record a last start win. Right in the mix.

Good win last start as odds-on favourite by 2 lengths over 480m at this track in a handy 29.09, beating Placid Prince. In a purple patch of form and likely to run well again.

In the money at this track at his last couple of starts, most recently finishing second over 480m. Won't find this any tougher. Right in this.

Form slipped last start when she finished last over 480m at this track beaten 5 lengths (29.32) behind Hooky Handicap in an A2 on October 3. Shouldn't trouble the top few hopes.
