Curragh Race 5 - Dng People & Property Mdn
The consistent ALMAZANN (3) is given a perfect chance to get off the mark. Recorded a second-place finish for the fourth time when 3.5L runner-up in a 2000m maiden here nineteen days ago. Sent off favourite for the third race in a row and likely to be popular once again. May reward this time. PIERRE GROSSE (13) is another consistent performer. Last seen recording a second-place effort by 1.25L attempting a 2500m Thurles handicap. From a good position is very much the main danger. NEMORINO (12) improved on debut run when 5L third in a 2400m Listowel maiden. Should progress again. Leading chance. POSSUM (16) rates best of the rest.

Form hard to fault. At the latest run 2nd of 18 at this track on September 26 over 2011m, 3.5 len behind Come What May with 61kg at $2.90. The start before that 4th of 15 at Roscommon on August 31 over 2414m, 7 len behind Miss Romagna with 61kg at $1.70. Working up to a win. Should be nice and fit fourth up and can get the win here.
