Monmore Race Fields - 9th May 2024

Having recently bagged the winner's prize, it's not hard to be rather cute on the chances of DRUMDOIT IVORY (trap 6) to show these the way home. Killglen Sweetie (trap 2) will be trying to leave these for dust and would be a serious danger if doing so. Church St Lucky (trap 5) knows what's required as his recent victory proves and he enters the fray.

ZOOS NAOMI (trap 1) appears on a winning mark and, while this isn't an event to get too heavily involved in, she looks the most likely to come out on top. Knockroe Tom (trap 2) holds sound credentials and he should be around at the business end. Fans will be hopeful Elderberry Flash (trap 6) is over the exertions of his last outing.

WYCHWOOD ROSE (trap 4) shouldn't be underestimated and, indeed, if getting the rub of the green, could be the one to annex first prize. Signet Batman (trap 2) has the ability to feature prominently with a clear passage. Skyfall Boss Man (trap 3) is a player especially if the main fancies make a few early errors.

Connections and supporters of MUSTANG GENERAL (trap 6) will be confident of a big run and it's not hard to see why as he should only need a sniff of a run to oblige. Action-packed tracker Windmill Dream (trap 2) will attempt to burn these off before half way. Bang On Maisie (trap 4) would be a player if getting a run. The others are pretty hard to fancy.

The drop in status could be just what the doctor ordered for SKYFALL EFFY (trap 6) and she can get the job done if avoiding initial aggro. It's not as demanding this time for Whisky Georgia (trap 2), who can make the selection pull out all the stops. Jaguar Rosie (trap 5) has a chance if getting the nominal good fortune required.

A win is a win as they say and DROMBEG CHIEF (trap 3) lines up after a recent trip to the winner's podium. This looks within his range also. The form of Rebel Stream (trap 4) stands up well and she shouldn't be far away when it matters. Drumdoit Theo (trap 1) will be thereabouts if giving a bold showing from the off.

The layers tend to adopt a cautious approach with SWIFT OCTAVIA (trap 1) and it would appear to be with good reason if they do likewise again today. Up The Anti (trap 5) holds a sound chance but may find the selection too good. Will early bird Morality (trap 3) catch the worm? It's fair to say he has a chance to.

NODUFF FLAMINGO (trap 6) seems well in at the weights and would be fancied to make it count if things pan out as expected through the early going. Relentless Molly (trap 1) will give it a go but may find the selection too hot on this occasion. Moorstown Veevee (trap 4) shouldn't be leaving empty-handed, but the remainder could well be.

NEWINN TRIGGER (trap 4) can be expected to be in the front rank charging to the judge and his supporters will be hopeful he can be in front when it matters. Light Up Lucy (trap 1) is turned around quickly after her latest race and should go well. Will the relegation make any difference to Blue Gold (trap 2)? Possibly.

Backers of SWIFT KAREN (trap 5) will have their fingers crossed that she gets away on the 'G' of go and she can then blast these rivals off the park. The bookies can expect to see money for Twos Tricky (trap 6) again and he should make a real fist of it. Builders Pride (trap 1) goes to traps in good spirits after a tenacious win and isn't out of it.

TRINITY BESTIE (trap 1) was last seen in against better company and she is fancied to make a winning challenge now the pressure is eased off. Swift Reassure (trap 6) has the talent to be a physical force and she is a serious player as a result. Aztec Empire (trap 4) has a chance and will probably be popular in the ring once more.

Backing SLAPDASH JOE (trap 4) here could be better than happy hour down the pub! With the usual good fortune in running, he will take all the beating. Seven Kisses (trap 2) is often in demand in the market and her supporters are likely to only be fearing the selection. Bruin (trap 5) needs a sizeable piece of the good fortune cookie.
