Roscommon Race 8 - GavinLynchRacing.com Flat Race
DR BONES (16) represents a trainer jockey combination dominating the sphere. This daughter of Soldier Of Fortune is bred to be high class and sure to be ready for debut. Leading contender. FINEST BAND (2) is a nicely bred debutant representing an in form yard. Expected to be fit and easy to fancy. TALE OF INTRIGUE (7) comes here race fit and may use experience to his benefit. Latest 4.25L second at Tramore was a good effort and there should be more to come yet. Keep safe. PEAT SOUNDS (15) showed a lot of ability when 1L third at Sligo on debut. Backward step racing second up but worth giving another chance here. THE LAST LINE (8) has been absent since July 2024. Sent off favourite for that start though and interesting connections have persisted with him. Potential threat to all.

Gelding back from a spell of four-and-a-half months. Has placed previously first up from a break. Finished off last campaign post a big 3.5 len win. Ballingarry P2p May 24 over 4828m defeating Proud As Punch with 60kg. Previously first up; second in a small field at Ballynoe P2p March 22 over 4828m, soft track; 5.5 len behind Farnahoe Rebel with 61kg. Has performed well when fresh in the past and looks set for a bright return.

Lining up for just third start. At very big odds at debut, ran second last of 8 at Killarney on July 16 over 3419m, 15 len behind Caislean Gear carrying 71kg at $51. Second-up 11th of 13 at this track on August 4 over 3118m, 53 len behind Lola O C carrying 71kg at $201. Needs to do more.
