Race Tip
LADY CHRISTA (12) has been going well with a smart 0.5L second at Fairyhouse over 1m2f preceding an eye-catching 5L victory in a lower level 1m4f handicap at the same track. Leading player. AL MUDHAFFAR (13) showed plenty of promise second up when a 2L winner of a 1m maiden at Dundalk AW before a Roscommon handicap fourth. Open to further improvement. MODEL APPROACH (16) progressed last Saturday at Down Royal finishing 0.5L runner-up contesting a 1m2f handicap. Makes for appeal. SON OF HYPNOS (7) placed second at the same Down Royal meeting last weekend tackling a 1m5f handicap. Interesting.
