Ballinrobe preview: Wayne Lordan looks like he could be the man to follow at Ballinrobe this evening where the Cork-born jockey can kick off a double on Miss Dela.
David Wachman's lightly raced four-year-old takes a significant drop in class for the nine-furlong maiden after a close fourth to Athenian Way at the Curragh recently. That was just the second start of Miss Dela's career and the first of them last year resulted in a runner-up placing to 1,000 Guineas heroine Nightime. Lordan will have no trouble doing the bottom weight on Tanzie in the nine-furlong handicap and this one put in a nice effort to be beaten only six lengths behind Ela Enta at Tipperary on her last start.
Ruby Walsh again teams up with For A Song in the Beginners Chase and the fast ground should be no problem for a horse who has won over hurdles at this time last year and was also placed on good to firm. His form in his last two races on heavy ground gives him the clear winning of this.
Nina Carberry travels west for the ride on Ballydungmanor in the bumper and it should be third time lucky for Dusty Sheehy's runner.
