    Naas 4.25 - Listed Race

    Taking a chance on Aidan O'Brien's Cleveland at 7/1 bet365

    Hasn't run for over 500 days but a couple of the market leaders here look vulnerable with AW form, form over further or just last year's wins not working out well.

    O'Brien's horses often need a run but he also gets first time out winners so that's a bit of pot luck as to whether the horse is fit and ready to race (but he did have a seasonal debut win yesterday)

    3.41 Curragh - The Park Express

    the traditional first group race of the season in these islands ...... and a first look at the battle of the generations as the 3yo take on the  older horses

    Impossible to oppose Mother Earth as the class act in the field. She won the 1000 Gns on debut last season and spent the rest of the year globe trotting and running in Group 1 races in the UK, Ireland, France, USA and Far East, so she's obviously a tough cookie

    Well odds on though

    Just a shame there's only 6 runners but I might just plump for something EW, probably to finish 2nd. BUT ..... traditionally O'Brien doesn't get firing until a few weeks in and if the mare has a globe trotting campaign mapped out again she might just be having this Group 3 race to blow away some cobwebs ...... so looking for an EW alternative is not absolute madness even with 6 runners

    I'll go for a big outsider who is race fit from the AW at Dundalk and has run OK at Listed level and as a 3yo is getting a big weight allowance

    1.15 Donc - The Brocklesby

    First 2yo race of the season and nothing much to go on ..... none of them have run before

    You can look at breeding, sales values, trainer modus operandi. 

    At an EW price I'll plump for Blatant. The yard won this last year so obviously know how to get one ready early and at 20,000 guineas he represents a relative expensive purchase in this field. Having won this last year you might hope that the yard has targeted the race to try and  repeat the performance !

    Blatant - 9/1 EW bet365
