7:15 Dundalk Tips

Going Church Mountain here, who won easily last time out and is a three-time C&D winner, should be much fancied for this.

She has shown to be exceptionally effective at 1m 2f, with numerous strong performances and a significant win over this trip, especially her notable victory at Navan in July 2024. Additionally, she has several place finishes around this distance on Irish tracks, including Dundalk. Although her last two runs at 1m 4f were below par, a return to a shorter trip seems promising, especially with odds of 10/1 that are suited for an each-way bet.

Consistent form on the last 3 runs for this horse, even ran well in defeat when finishing 6th at this course last time out where she may have done too much in the early part of the race. Still very lightly raced on this surface, may well have more to offer on this surface.

Methgal is having his first run at this 1m3f distance so he needs to prove himself at this trip, it is encouraging that he did stay on well over 1mile last time out so that offers some hope he'll get this trip. Lightly raced over the last few months, some further progress is possible. Small each-way tip.
