7:45 Dundalk Tips

Ozark Daze was a selection a couple of days ago. Only managed 6th but may have found the drop back to a mile a bit sharp. Worth keeping the faith now he's back up in trip, hopefully none the worse for that recent run.

Last year's winner 'Autocrat' might go well. He drops back into this 0/70 grade again after a winless summer. But he's a 5-time winner here at Dundalk. He's back on last year's winning mark but has won on higher round here. .. LTO here 2 weeks ago, he tackled a 0/90 over 2 furlongs further and finished 8th of 11 but only beat 3 lengths. This might have been the plan and that would have teed him up nicely if so.

Ran one of his better races at this trip and makes his Polytrack debut here. Has an each-way chance with the jockey claiming 4lb if handling the surface.

If Sinbad My Dad can get a clear run here tonight, he could go close to gaining another victory to add to the one gained at Leopardstown in August. He ran well when fourth here last time when getting blocked in the final furlong. With a bit of luck in running here tonight, he could certainly be involved in the finish.

Appeared stretched by twelve furlongs trip last time, and the mare looks likely to appreciate the return to this trip, over which she scored last month, giving her jockey his first taste of success in the process. His seven pounds claim means Cherry Pink remains competitively weighted on her best form.

In just the second handicap race, but going up in trip should help, plus a further two-pound decrease in the weights. The trainer has had a good two weeks.
