Fairyhouse Race 4 - Adare Manor Opportunity Mares Mdn Hurdle
BORN BELIEVING (1) looks to have plenty of ability. Did appear in need of the run at Roscommon last week so should take a step forward fitness wise for that performance and is considered. LA MULETA (8) produced good form on both starts. Indicated promise at Kilbeggan on rules debut last month. Will improve and must be given the utmost respect. LEADING ROSE (5) finally got off the mark at the twelfth attempt in point to points during May. Could have a future under rules and deserves a market check. EVERYDAY LIFE (4) unseated the rider at Roscommon last week. Worth giving another chance if supported.

Racing second-up today. First-up after five months finished fifth of 15 runners at Roscommon on September 28 over 4023m, 29 len behind Culldoo with 71kg at $13. Previously second-up finished fifth of 16 runners at Punchestown in the G3 Weatherbys Ireland EBF Mares Bumper on April 29 over 3319m, 26 len behind Even Tho carrying 75kg at $67. Best form stacks up nicely so worth another try.

Having third race start. Was promising at debut finished second of 8 runners at Necarne P2p on May 8 over 4828m, 3 len behind Moral Compass carrying 60kg. Returned from break finished third of 8 starters at Kilbeggan on September 3 over 3822m, 15 len behind Splendid Fellow with 68kg at $21. Great chance to go on with the job.
