Sligo Race 2 - Tote.ie Median Auction Maiden
COUNTY CARLOW (3) appeals as the leading chance after finishing 4th at Dundalk over 1609m, beaten 4.1L, following a close 2nd at the same track over 1408m. FATE'S GAMBIT (4) is consistent, placing 3rd at Curragh over 1207m and 2nd at Dundalk over 1408m in recent starts. KEOGIE (6) was runner-up at Curragh over 1207m before a midfield effort at Gowran Park. SUBSTANCE (8) and GIA MOR (9) both resume after long breaks and have yet to place. CLASSICAL SYMPHONY (1) and BASILANO (2) have struggled in recent runs. County Carlow, Fate's Gambit, and Keogie look the main hopes based on recent form.
