Curragh Race 2 - Diageo Luxury Spirits Irish European Breeders Fund Median Auction Mdn
LOUGHREA (1) wasn't disgraced on his sole start as a three-year-old and indicated significant promise providing his first start this season when narrowly beaten into second place contesting a 1600m event at Gowran Park last month. This looks to be a good opportunity to break his maiden. VALENTINO ECLIPSE (10) wore a hood on debut and caught the eye gaining a strong finish at Leopardstown. Worth taking very seriously. BANG BANG (11) disappointed in two maidens as a juvenile however is getting the hang of things. Respect. SAVE THE SIXES (13) was not a cheap purchase and given time. Yard in form and this well related filly is of interest.
