Busy bidding for another win in Kerry

Your Busy clearly likes the Kerry air with half of his eight career victories coming in 'The Kingdom'.

James Nash 's veteran ran out an easy winner at Listowel early last month and bids to follow up now at the county's other track on the third day of Killarney's July festival.

The 12-year-old made the most of his lower mark over timber when scooting clear before the last for an 11-length success last time and still runs off a rating a stone lower than his chase mark.

He claimed this prize in 2013 and with Ruby Walsh again taking the mount a bold bid for a repeat looks assured.

There are several familiar names lining up against Your Busy in the Bunkers Bar & Restaurant, which is the €25,000 feature event on the card.

Smart mare Cailin Annamh heads the weights for the two-mile-six-furlong contest on her first start since finishing fourth at the course in a competitive handicap chase last August.

Willie Mullins is represented by Argentino and the Gigginstown gelding would appear one of the obvious dangers.

He produced a much better effort when third behind Phantom Prince at Ballinrobe in late May and although the winner has been well beaten since, the runner-up Marchese Marconi has boosted the form with a win at Bellewstown.

There are also four Flat races on the mixed card and the highlight on the level looks to be the €19,000 Irish Stallion Farms EBF Fillies Handicap.

The one-mile-three-furlong contest has attracted a strong line-up and in-foal Oceania Queen bids for a hat-trick for in-form trainer Pat Martin.

The Oratorio filly hit form with a vengeance last month when scoring at Fairyhouse and Ballinrobe and despite a 9lb rise here, she looks capable of going close again.

Dermot Weld 's Sidra looked a progressive type when winning her maiden at Gowran last time but the handicapper has given her a stiff enough mark of 93 for her handicap debut. On A Pedestal has been hitting the woodwork for Ballydoyle and on bare form would have a great shout having pushed Stellar Glow so close at Leopardstown last time.
