DAILY RACING PREVIEW BY ANDY HOLDING
MONDAY MAY 18
6.20 ROSCOMMON
Not a strong maiden by any stretch of the imagination and it’s one HUFF N’PUFF should be good enough to feature in if he runs to the level he achieved at Navan last time out.
Although only fifth at the Meath venue, the speed figure of the race won by Latin America was a very good for one of its kind and with the winner going on to run extremely well despite dropping back in trip at Naas yesterday, along with the runner-up and seventh winning the day before, the form has worked out well in accordance to the data.
Handed a mark of 83 thereafter, Henry De Bromhead’s gelding could have easily gone down the handicap route but with connections finding a nice opportunity for him to make further progress against non-winners, he can add to the list of positive results for his stable in recent days (four of their last five runners have won).
