19:10 Patrickswell Apprentice Handicap (45-65) (Div 1)

Race preview

RODNEY BAY is taken to follow up a course and distance win off a 5lb higher mark. The selection has progressed really well after a winter break and, having run a cracker when just denied by Sense Of Worth at Dundalk, again finished well to come out on the right side of a photo-finish here on good ground in April. Joe Murray's charge beat the gambled-on Ellaat (50/1 into 5/2 favourite) by a head and a number of winners have come out of that race since. The form received a timely boost when Ellaat scored at Fairyhouse last week. Matilda With Me gained reward for her consistency when beating Anfaass by just over a length at Cork last month and there shouldn't be much between the pair at the revised terms.
