Downpatrick Race 8 - Dunleath Flat Race
MYLUCKYMAKER (11) In the money when 2nd last time at Kilbeggan and good career start. Been in the money 2 from 2 attempts this campaign. Might have to make up considerable ground. Deserves consideration. ORDERLY CONDUCT (8) Tidy run when 3rd last run at Sligo and competing in a lower grade. Has plenty of early speed. A win wouldn't surprise. LOVES A LAUGH (13) Tidy effort when 3rd last run here and stepping down to a lower level. Has run into the money at every start this preparation. Respect against this field. ASK THE LORD (1) Michael Mulvany trained 5yo by Tough As Nails having first race start. Follow the money.

Back from a 38 week break. Jumped at $67.00 and came in 7th last start at Leopardstown but up against a less challenging field. Rather have another day.

Started at $67.00 and ran 5th last run at Killarney but was on debut last time. Will find this grade easier. Appears tested.

Finished 3rd last time at Cork and dropping in grade. On an upward trajectory in recent races. Needs a mighty effort to win this.

Honest race when 2nd last start in a hurdle at Sligo and was a debutant last start. The large claim from D Mcgill should help. Will be a tough ask.

Was competitive when 3rd last run at Sligo and has been racing in stronger company. Likely to be well placed early. Definite claims.

Odds of $41.00 and disappointing display when 9th last time at Down Royal but having second career run. R M Mcparland provides some weight relief and facing a weaker grade. Looking elsewhere today.

Amongst the placegetters when 3rd last run at the track and facing less formidable opponents. Been in the placegetters each start this campaign. Gets a chance against these.
