BetVictor Guaranteed Run For Your Money (Pro/Am) Flat Race

Off time: 19:30 | Winning time: 3m 53.10s

Big Boy Bloater

Age: 5| Weight: 12-0| J: Mr T Joseph Kelly⁽⁷⁾| T: D E Fitzgerald

25/1

First foal; dam unraced sister to useful hurdle winner Captain Kirkton, half-sister to some useful hurdle and chase winners. Hard to assess on debut and the market should provide pointers.

Form:

Chief Of Police¹⁰¹

Age: 5| Weight: 12-0| J: R Deegan⁽⁵⁾| T: O McKiernan

7/1

Showed improved form on only hurdles outing when finishing 3rd of 14 at Ballinrobe in May; had previously shown little abilty in point-topoints and bumpers; as good a chance as any at this level.

Form: S3-083

Mister Mogul

Age: 6| Weight: 12-0| J: M P Burke⁽⁷⁾| T: T Doyle

33/1

Closely related to some useful Flat and National Hunt performers; only the market will provide clues about his chances.

Form:

Dads Lad

Age: 4| Weight: 11-10| J: Mr H D Dunne⁽⁵⁾| T: Mrs O Byrne

25/1

Related to some minor bumper and hurdles winners but nothing stands out on breeding and unless the money is down he looks an unlikely type on his debut.

Form:

Jazz Toes^t1⁴⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 11-10| J: Mr J J Codd| T: Peter Fahey

5/1

Disappointed on his debut at Roscommon in June but put up a much better effort next time out at Killarney; front runner who should improve again and one of the more likely candidates.

Form: 03

Mezyan²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 11-10| J: Mr T Hamilton⁽³⁾| T: J J Hanlon

20/1

Made an encouraging debut at the Galway festival when fifth of 13 beaten 12L in a bumper but ran below this effort next time out at Tramore; has ability but might find a couple too good.

Form: 56

Scalor^h,t¹⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 11-10| J: Sean O'Keeffe⁽⁷⁾| T: Miss E Doyle

9/2

Failed to build on a promising start to his career at Punchestown but came back to some sort of form last time out at KIllarney; experience should hold him in good stead and certainly capable of a place.

Form: 28-94

Ya Know¹²

Age: 4| Weight: 11-10| J: Mr C J Byrne⁽⁷⁾| T: J J Hanlon

100/1

Pulled up in a maiden hurdle at Killbegan on debut in June and finished last of 11 in a bumper and then 11th of 12 last time. Others make more appeal.

Form: P00

As High Say^h²⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 11-3| J: Mr D T Hyde⁽⁷⁾| T: H De Bromhead

14/1

Plenty to like about her improved effort at Limerick in July finishing second of 16 over 2m on final start for trainer Paul Power but very disappointing last time out at Kilbeggan in August. Could bounce back and has chances.

Form: 828

Hit The Hay⁴¹

Age: 4| Weight: 11-3| J: Mr J P Berry⁽⁷⁾| T: J A Berry

100/1

Daughter of Lilbourne Lad out of a Bluebird mare. Closely related to dual hurdle winner at 2m The Plan Man. Pulled on only bumper start which does not bode well for her chances.

Form: P

Lady Moon¹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 11-3| J: Mr D L Queally⁽³⁾| T: D Queally

6/5

Filly by Arcadio out of a Flemensfirth mare.; excellent effort on only racecourse appearance at Tramore with that form setting the standard. May prove very hard to beat.

Form: 2

Visionaire^t²⁰

Age: 4| Weight: 11-3| J: Mr D Kiely⁽⁷⁾| T: J Halley

33/1

Disappointed on both her start to date and hard to see where the improvement will come from to see her take a hand here.

Form: 85

Forecasts

Lady Moon (6/5), Scalor (9/2), Jazz Toes (5/1), Chief Of Police (7/1), As High Say (14/1), Mezyan (20/1), Dads Lad (25/1), Big Boy Bloater (25/1), Visionaire (33/1), Mister Mogul (33/1), Ya Know (100/1), Hit The Hay (100/1)

LADY MOON put in a fine effort on her debut beaten by a more experienced rival but keeping up to her task well. The form of that race is head and shoulders above anything else with racecourse experience; she may win but her starting price will be prohibitive. If Mezyan can return to the form he showed at the Galway festival then he may be the one chasing the selection home but needs to bounce back from a poor run last time out while Chief Of Police has enough experience now to suggest he is capable of running in to a place at the very least.
