Naas Race 2 - M.l.a Engineering Ltd. Supporting Ardclough Gaa Mdn
TAX ME LATER (15) has been knocking on the door with three straight placings including at Bellewstown over 1609m last time after racing prominently. Nicely positioned to go one better. ZELANI (9) made a pleasing return from a break when runner-up trying 1609m at Listowel. Travelled well before just being edged out. Drops in grade and looks a major threat. RIDERSINTHESKY (13) has been off for five-and-a-half months following a poor tenth tackling 1408m at Limerick last campaign. Capable of having an impact if fit. TAI FOO (14) makes his debut for Mrs J Harrington. By Night Of Thunder and worth monitoring closely in the betting.
