17:00 Friday Night Lights At Dundalk Handicap (47-65)

Race preview

ERUPTION was unsuited by soft at Naas, but has previous form at this level and now looks ahead of the handicapper. Her five all-weather runs are poor, but were contested over unsuitable distances and she now drops to five furlongs running from a career-low rating and under a 7lb claimer. Havana Notion is also suited by five furlongs and has all-weather form. He ran OK here recently, drops in distance, and is ridden by a 7lb claimer. Californiagoldrush ran well enough in a recent claimer and while raised 5lb, is proven on this surface, although she drops back in distance. Inishmot Prince is a five-time course winner who has been out of form, but his rating has fallen. The admirable Geological is in form, but will be unsuited by this distance. Eglish has also been running reasonably well, but would prefer slightly further. Red Cymbal's recent form is also over longer trips and he hasn't won since January 2020.
