Punchestown Race 3

Adare Manor Opportunity Handicap Chase (0-100)

Prize Money: $22,140

DIAMOND DOLLAR (4) was unplaced two back in a novice hurdle at Limerick. Made amends last time winning by a nose revisiting the same venue. Set to continue with the strong recent form. DUCE BIGALOW (5) is a ten start maiden. Progressed last start finishing second in a steeplechase at Naas. Best form stacks up and cannot be underestimated. HAKENSACK (6) registered a sound second thirteen days back at Limerick. That result came as no surprise after a solid third in a novice hurdle at Cork. Leading contender again. LOVELY REACTION (1) failed to complete a steeplechase at Fairyhouse. Comes here with definite top-three claims.

Third-up today and placed third-up in the past. Resuming pulled up at this track on November 13 over 4928m. Second run from a spell didn't finish the race at Fairyhouse on November 30 over 4325m. Easier assignment today but needs more.
