Roscommon Race 6 - Irish Stallion Farms EBF Median Auction Race (Smullen Series)
NIL BUA GAN DUA (6) returned to action with a 5.5L third contesting a 1609m maiden at Cork. Taken to record the first success of his career stepping up in distance. Sottsass gelding SIR BENJI (3) debuted with an impressive 2.75L victory in a 2011m maiden at Navan six weeks ago. Bold show expected. REBEL ASCENDANT (2) raced prominently prior to coming home 1.25L clear of his nearest rival tackling 1911m at Gowran Park. Strong prospects. Awtaad colt DIAL ME IN (1) enters calculations on his first attempt of this distance following a 4.5L fourth competing in a 1609m event at Cork making his seasonal reappearance.
