Review dundalk 8th May

Moment Of Weakness justified market confidence to maintain his 100 per cent record in the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Race at Dundalk, but he gave favourite-backers a real scare.

The 5-4 shot was quickly away and attempted to make all, but he was tracked by Meow , who travelled well and looked in control when hitting the front just over a furlong out.

However, Jessica Harrington's charge showed the benefit of his debut experience as he dug deep for Fran Berry to touch off the newcomer by a short head in the shadow of the post.

David Wachman, trainer of Meow, went one better when Glorified (6-4 favourite) comfortably landed a gamble with a highly impressive debut in the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Fillies Maiden.

The 160,000-guinea purchase was ridden to lead just under a furlong out by Wayne Lordan and pulled clear of her more experienced rivals with ease to beat Atyaab by two and a half lengths.

Grand Admiral seemed to enjoy the step up to an extended mile and a quarter for the first time as he ran right away with the www.dundalkstadium.com Race.

Seamie Heffernan sat in second on Aidan O'Brien's colt (7-2), who took it up two furlongs out before stretching clear to score by seven lengths.

Desert Al (6-1) recorded his first success for nearly three years in the Dundalk Stadium On Facebook Apprentice Handicap, leading close home to deny long-time leader Faynita by three-quarters of a length.

The winner was ridden by Padraig Beggy, who completed a double when he forced View From The Top (25-1) home by a neck in the first division of the Hen & Stag Packages At Dundalk Stadium Handicap.

Enigma Code (8-1) put enough daylight between himself and Inwood when kicking clear two furlongs out to narrowly repel the latter's surge in the Bookings At dundalkstadium.com Handicap, getting home by half a length.
