After a thrilling season of jumping action in Leopardtown, the focus shifts to the flats and some classic contestants will announce their credentials to Foxer this weekend with the Ballinch Stad 2,000 and 1,000 Guinness Trials and the PW McGraw Memorial Ballisax Stacks.
Shapes will be created quickly in the new season as clues for the sport’s biggest prize will be available just seven days after the new season. Dermot Weld hopes to represent every major race this weekend.
Ger Lyons-trained Group 1 runner-up Dr. Jempoff, who has entered both the English and Irish 2,000 guineas, is the head of the potential field for the listed Ballinch stud Red Rocks 2,000 guinea trial. Both races look like roulette games at bestnewzealandcasinos.com because it’s hard to be confident about the winner.
The Dark Angel’s son was narrowly touched on the Kinland Phoenix steaks last year and shows an exciting kid for the Lions to mix it up in some of this year’s big races, with a strong hand on the day.
The impressive Naas first winner, Parle D’Or, is a Moyglare homebred who opened his account at his only start last October and is one of a dozen entries for the first of three trial races on Saturday.
There are five Colts who have received at least 100 ratings in opposition to Weld’s son from Starspangledbanner, including course and distance winner Gluntown who last won the Kilavulan steaks for Aidan O’Brien.
“Glounthaune is running very well and showing a lot of speed,” the coach said.
“America (Breeders Cup) was probably too fast for him, Ryan said he couldn’t organize him and he was too green on the track but he was going well. We played catch-up last season, he’s a big horse, but he could be one for the French guineas.
Group 3 Ballinch Stad Prairie Bale 1,000 Guinea Trial Homeless Gun Weld-trained and may be a Moigler-owned representative. Philly won her debut in Leopardtown for the first time and ran well in Kilabhulan behind Glantown mentioned above.
Group 2 debutant Stakes and Group 1 Moiglayer are leading a strong potential team for stud runner-up Agartha coach Joseph O’Brien, and the 1,000 Guinness Trials are in-depth with the Panama Red and Sacred Bridge X-Lion-trained pairings. Their campaign began, when Aidan O’Brien could potentially only make his competitive debut.
Speaking on Tuesday afternoon, Weld said: “The current plan would be to run the PW McGraw Memorial Ballisax Stakes and the Ballinch Stad 1000 Guinness Trial home of the song Duke the Sesa.
“They both deal with their confidence as they choose to embark on their play activities.”
“At this stage, I am happy with both horses and they will definitely be runners at this stage, ground permitting.
Duke de Sesa is one of 12 entries for the PW McGraw Memorial Ballistic Sex Stack. The Leopardtown winner has the option of an Irish 2,000 guinea tilt or English or Irish derby, like many potential rivals on Saturday.
A very strong selection of entries for the Ger Lyons this weekend has been praised by the undefeated Atomic Jones who added his Kurrag first winner by scoring in Group 2 KPMG Champion Juvenile Stakes at the Irish Champions Weekend. Atomic Jones will now carry the globally known color of the Beauty Stable partnership this weekend after the Leopardstown win.
Bluegrass, who has joined Stable Fellow Scriptwriter and Temple of Artemis, could lead Aidan O’Brien’s quest for a fifth straight win in the PW McGraw Memorial Ballisax Stakes.
“Bluegrass can run in Ballisex. He was a little green in Newmarket, it took a while for Penny to get off, he has a lazy way. He has never run so badly in Jetland since he never traveled. Instructor.
O’Brien’s two sons, Joseph and Donacha, will keep their father in this Group 3 task. Joseph Galway’s first winner could gather Bukaru, while Donacha’s Airfield steak runner-up Piz Badil is an exciting contender to promise a bright day at flat racing.
