Sligo Race 7 - Summer Is Coming Sligo Flat Race
Point-to-point winner COSMOS D'AINAY (1) confirmed ability with a third tackling 4023m at Clonmel and rates a chance. PAYMELATER (4) left previous efforts behind when third in a jumpers flat race at Tramore last August. That form is working out reasonably well and not to be ruled out if primed for first start in 270 days. HILLFORT MANOR (2) hails from a family producing some smart winners on the flat. Worth a check in the betting ahead of debut. Decorated Knight gelding MIRACLE KNIGHTS (3) is another newcomer worthy of a second look.

Five-year-old gelding by Decorated Knight out of Miracle Steps on debut. Hard to recommend without a market push.
