Tullig Cyrname continued his successful campaign in the Lee Stand 550 at Tralee and once again clocked the fastest time of the round, 29.53. That’s 4:4 for the Buckley runner.
There are few novice events that attract more attention than Kilkenny’s Champion Open Unraced and quickest among a string of outstanding first round performances, none impressed more than Brendan/Damian Matthews’ Hes The Greatest who clocked a sensational 28.94 on a track estimated to be -30. The 75lb black is a litter brother to recent Maiden Derby favourite, Wide Open.
Magical Mary once again dominated the Cesarewitch at Mullingar and goes for the semis this afternoon.
There was a new FOY for Enniscorthy’s 575 yard course by Travelin Man this week. (The fastest clocking last year was 31.63) while only Jacob Tashadelek (30.81) went quicker in 2021 than Clainn Rapid’s 30.89 for 575 at Cork.
Look out too for a flying sprint – the quickest in 18 months at Galway – from October puppy Foxwood Storm. While at Waterford, the similarly aged Daring Bowie took three spots off his own FOY for the sprint.
