Leopardstown Race 5 - Boyle Sports 'Home Of The Early Payout' Hcp
MONVOE (4) brings the best form and can complete a hat-trick. Won a 1600m Limerick handicap in April by 1.5L and improved again when a 3L winner at Leopardstown last month. Climbs in trip and likely to keep progressing. One to beat. HOW'STHEBAI (3) made a good comeback running 1L fourth at Naas in April. Signed off last season securing a Dundalk maiden win. Leading chance. RED AUTUMN (1) holds ability. Produced a decent effort seventy four days ago when 3.5L fourth at Naas and rates as one of the main contenders. SON OF BEAUTY (2) scored at Dundalk three starts back. Two average performances since. Might benefit from a longer trip.

Most recently 5th of 7 at Navan on May 16 over 2011m, 7 len behind Santa Bravado with 58.5kg at $5.50. The run before that won by 0.5 len at Cork May 3 over 1609m on a rain affected track defeating Harmani carrying 61kg at $4. Likely to find this out of reach.
