Dundalk Race 3 - New Saddle Bar At Dundalk Handicap
FAUSTYNA (5) Nice effort when winning by 3/4L last time at this track and having second career run. Bit of extra work to do with more weight. Has to be included. JAMPA LING (1) Close up last run around here and will have to carry extra weight. Has the early speed to burn across from the wide draw. Can go on with it. ONE COOL BEAR (3) Missed by a narrow margin last start at the track but up in grade. Has to cope with a weight increase. Respect. ROYAL COUNTY GLORY (8) Had a break from racing and returns to competition. Came in 4th last start at this track but has drawn the rails. Should race on the speed. Can give this a shake.

Was $3.75 and narrowly denied a win last run around here and hoping that the added weight won't hurt. Has the necessary speed to overcome the wide draw. Can figure in the finish.

Jumped at $5.50 and ordinary performance when 11th last start at Naas. Struggling this preparation with no placings from 7 starts. Might have to make up considerable ground. One for the exotics players.

Back from a break. Odds of $81.00 and finished 6th last start around here but gets a reduction in weight. Likely to get back in the run. Not very reliable.
