Race Tip

CRYSTAL BLACK (3) bids for a 2024 hat-trick following a neck victory contesting a 1m2f premier handicap at the Curragh (Ireland). Leading chance on form this year. ETHICAL DIAMOND (16) represents a top Irish yard. Went well at Leopardstown finishing a nose second in a 1m2f handicap. Ticks plenty of boxes. DEAKIN (9) delivered seasonal return managing a neck second behind the main selection in the aforementioned Curragh handicap, Proven tackling this trip and could go close. SHADOW DANCE (15) placed second attempting the 1m4f Heritage Handicap at Newmarket during October. Interesting on comeback run.
