In depth
Verdict
Red Laser has run twice on Turf in 13 starts and though he's progressing a 10lb rise for his latest success at Dundalk looks excessive. Maundy Money has seven victories to his credit, all on Turf with plenty of give. He's rarely run on ground forecast to be this quick in a long career and it's hard to know how he'll handle it. Love Is The Key has won once in 20 starts, in heavy ground at Fairyhouse, and she rarely runs beyond 7f but Smoke Charger ran poorly on testing ground at Killarney and could do better on tonight's going. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH is still a maiden after 18 starts but has gone close on several occasions and, as she can't get much lower in the ratings, she's given the nod to finally get off the mark.
