Stack can disclose another winner
Wednesday, 29 March 2006 15:42Tommy Stack got off to a good start at the Curragh on Sunday and he can keep up the momentum at Thurles with Disclosure in the first of seven races that is due to start at 2.40.
Placed on both outings as a juvenile, this fellow, a half-brother to the mile and a half victor and successful hurdler, Zeroberto, should see out this mile trip well.
Already proven on testing ground, Disclosure can beat Define and Nocturnal Knight (a big danger as he appears to have plenty of stamina and he acts on the going).
Opening leg of the Jackpot is the second split of the 40-60 handicap. Top-weight, Forfeiter looks to hold a solid chance here.
A dual winner on the all-weather at Southwell, the American-bred seems to be quite consistent and he ran well on his initial outing for Ger Lyons last October.
Oddshoes has a chance of giving Lyons and Tadhg O'Shea a double half-an-hour later. This dependable sort appeals more than most in a competitive heat.
The second division of the Nenagh Handicap is similarly open but Roisin's Prince under Cathy Gannon has a strong each-way claim.
Blanchfield in the first bumper, the conclusion of the Jackpot, will
justifiably be banked-on by most investors. Her last two pieces of form stand-out in this company.
Francis Flood's mare was placed behind smart types in Hairy Molly and Tex Morgan and against her own sex in this, James O'Farrell's mount should score.
