1:57 Curragh Tips

Distance winner Joshs Joy is a consistent type who arrives in good form and is available at a decent price on her handicap debut. She is also a proven winner on today's predicted soft going.

Massive confidence from reports coming from the yard with this one. Market movers already??' all good signs. Can still just about get an each-way price.

4-year-old Churchill filly. 2/14 here when last seen in November. Has the benefit of a high draw. Declan McDonagh on board is a plus.

Went close at Cork and Naas in the autumn. Not so good on heavy ground at the Curragh the next two starts. Should be competitive with Colin Keane in the plate, and five places on offer.

4yo filly NANCY J gets the vote here. She returns to 6f now, a trip she hasn't seen since she was sent off favourite for the Goffs 500 as a 2yo, where she had no luck in running and was left with too much to do. She went handicapping as a 3yo, running at longer trips in some smart races and was not beaten far in a few. She has dropped down from 90??'95 ratings and returns now off 88 and back to 6f, and is having her first run for Johnny Murtagh. Her overall profile and form suggest she could be well ahead of today's rivals. Large field, so given a confident each-way shout.
