Marsa

Marsa - 9th in 4.00 Dundalk 19/01/24

I tipped Marsa for this race and although disappointed with the result I still feel she is becoming well handicapped and is ready to strike in her next few races. She was slow away from the stalls here and had to make up plenty of ground to challenge the leaders a furlong out. She faded out of contention over the final furlong eventually finishing an eased down ninth. The handicapper has dropped her a further 3 lbs and she is now on a mark of 73. She has won twice here at Dundalk both times over seven furlongs off marks of 77 and 81. Don’t be surprised to see her stepped back up to seven furlongs. She looked like she needed her last two runs and is one to keep onside.

Soldier Of Honour

Soldier Of Honour - 3rd in 3.30 Down Royal 23/01/24

Trainer Eoin McCarthy is going through a lean spell with his horses at the moment but Soldier Of Honour caught the eye at Down Royal in a Handicap Chase staying on well to finish third. This was his second run in a handicap and he jumped well throughout and was eventually beaten by St Denis’s Well who had won at Navan on his previous run. The second Monoxide got an easy lead and was well ridden by Philip Byrnes. Soldier Of Fortune is nothing special but off a mark of 92 he may pick up a moderate handicap over the coming months.
