Curragh Race 6 - Mcguinness Maintenance Services Irish European Breeders Fund Mdn
CHANGING LANES (3) wears a tongue strap for the first time after finishing a beaten favourite over much further than this at Leopardstown two weeks ago. Drop in trip should suit and looks hard to oppose. SAXONY CHARMS (13) finished third providing his only start this season over course and distance when beaten 1L. Will have improved and not ruled out. ZADAWA (15) managed to keep on nicely debuting at Gowran Park suggesting she has a future and is worth watching for positive market movement. NUMANTIA (6) wasn't disgraced behind the second mentioned and is another to be given plenty of consideration providing second start.
