[u]21:10 Dundalk - Musawama[/u]
He's been a little disappointing over hurdles recently but has plenty of ability and hopefully he will show that tonight. This will be his first run on the flat for us but all his best form was on good ground/the all-weather and he was a winner at Lingfield and Kempton when trained by John Gosden.
My only concern for him this evening is that he has a lot of weight to carry but Emmet McNamara claims 3lbs, which is a help, and the trip won't be a problem. He's a nice horse and we're hoping that running him here will restore a bit of his confidence and he should be capable of putting in a good performance.

[u]20:55 Dundalk[/u]
[i]Silverlord[/i]
He was off for more than a year until making his comeback here at Dundalk earlier in the month and we were pretty pleased with his effort (third, beaten two lengths behind Aragorn Rouge). He seems to be in good form but I'm a little concerned that he has quite a lot of weight to carry (9-10). He's stepping up to a mile and a half, which shouldn't be an issue. Emmet McNamara rides and, if the horse can show he's come on for that run, he should go well.

[u]20:20 Dundalk[/u]
[b]Face Value[/b]
He won his maiden hurdle on his debut for us back in October at Punchestown but he's been off since then and we're going to bring him back on the all-weather tonight. He was a maiden of six races on the level when he came to us but he had shown some ability for Brian Meehan. As I said, he's had a bit of a lay-off so we're just hoping for a decent run, and he'll probably wait until he gets a bit of better ground to resume over hurdles. Colin Keane claims a handy 7lbs.

[b]Sounds Of Thunder[/b]
Sounds Of Thunder was very disappointing over hurdles last time out but she just doesn't handle really heavy ground. She was also well beaten when last seen on the all-weather here back in December. She's been dropped a couple...

[i]Alubari[/i]
Alubari looks to be my best chance of a winner today. He was a winner on the flat at Wolverhampton for David Simcock back in December of last year, and he made his debut for us at that same track a fortnight ago. He ran a good race that day, finishing well to take third place. Pat Smullen will be on top tonight and he'll ride him from mid-division, and hopefully he can come late to get into the prizemoney.
[i]Szabo's Destiny[/i]
He's a relatively new recruit to the team and we're still learning with him but he ran a promising race over hurdles at Navan a couple of weeks ago. Today's race will be his first on the flat for us, although he won twice on the level for James Given earlier in the year and has experience on the all-weather from his two-year-old...
