JUDGING by his marvellous four timer at the Curragh last weekend, Pat Flynn's charges are in top form. Cooraclare, one of his winning quartet reappears in tomorrow's Ardfert Handicap at Tralee and if none the worse for her efforts may defy her penalty. She won a very open handicap at headquarters, getting up inside the distance to head Violets Wild. She has the Gowran Park winner Lancaster House to beat.
Flynn may also win the Nolans Garage Handicap with Mayhaps a close up third behind Renata's Prince and Myro Ballane in a nine furlong handicap at Tipperary and more likely to appreciate this shorter distance.
Glowing Lines was closing with the leaders when falling at the third last in a beginners chase at Clonmel and might compensate in the Kingdom Beginners Chase. But a fit Winter Belle should be food enough to win Grandeur and Grace may confirm Listowel placings with Pier House in the Dennys Maiden.
The Michael Grassick trained Picard is picked in tomorrow's NCF Dairies Handicap at Sligo.
Grassick, who has a good strike rate here, might also win the Collooney Apprentice Handicap with the former Dermot Weld trained Duharra, but preference is for the Peter McCreery trained Majestic Paddy.
Fifth of 16 behind better fancied stable companion Easy Definition at Gowran Park the Dermot Weld trained Equity Silver is hard to oppose in the Strandhill Maiden as is Barnageera Boy in the NCF Meat's Handicap Hurdle.
