Leopardstown - 18/4/10

Icon Dream 4.10 Leopardstown (EW) 10-1 Bet365 The 4.10 race looks a cracker and I can see numerous group and listed winners coming from this race. The fav Mikhail Glinka looks short enough and there are at least 3 that look well priced and worth opposing it with: Address Unknown 8-1 Icon Dream 10-1 Puncher Clynch 16-1 I don't want to be backing 3 horses in an 8 runner race though so I've opted for Icon Dream each way. Jamie Spencer is on board and while some avoid him I like the way he rides horses over these sort of distances of 1m2f to 1m4f. The horse dwelt on its debut and still won, I'd expect Jamie to get it settled and come late as usual. He's in decent enough form, the horse holds a Derby entry and we'll see how good it is this afternoon.

Re: Leopardstown - 18/4/10 14:30 - Brushed Aside @ 7/2 365 (bog) Useful maiden form when finally getting off the mark LTO at Dundalk, I don't think the step down to six furlongs will hamper her in anyway, she could make this mark of 81 look very light. 15:35 - Recharge @ 7/2 365 (bog) Famous Name will be difficult to beat and if Gan Amhras can find form then he'll be in with a shout but Recharge has some real solid form in the bag and the step back into listed company could see him back int he winners enclosure, was beaten under a length by Sea The Stars and is a previous group 3 winner. 16:10 - Address Unknown @ 8/1 365 (bog E-W) Impressed with this one's performence at Dundalk to break maiden tag, of course big step up going into group 3 company but we don't really know just how good this one is, I think he could be pretty decent. It looks a tough race I wouldn't want to be taking the 6/4 about the favourite, plenty of unexposed horses here. Last year this was won by Fame And Glory so I expect the winner to be very useful.
