Race Tip

CHESTERBAYLAD (10) showed marked improvement to open his account with plenty in hand after a 3. 75L Cork masterclass earlier this month under Josh Williamson. Further progress expected. May go back-to-back. CONVINCING (5) delivered a triumphant hurdling handicap debut producing a neck success at Kilbeggan with Eoghan Finegan aboard. Key player if in the same condition. LUNAR LANDSCAPE (11) was only 2L behind the eventual winner when fourth of fifteen at this circuit latest. Place chance if able to build on that effort. Any moves in the market for DIRECT APPROACH (3) should be noted providing handicap debut for Gordon Elliott.
