Work Watcher - Listowel 4.10 7 Gas Line Boy - each way @ 10/1 (Bet 365) - odds to 4th place + Work Watcher - Beverley 4.05 1 Mushaarif - win @ 3/1
The Kerry National at Listowel will be a 3 mile slog in deep ground over 3 miles and we think
that some of the "class horses" at the top of the weights will be vulnerable under such conditions.
One that won't is Folsom Blue, but this may actually be a bit short and he has been off a fair while;
Gordon Elliott runs 6 here and the unexposed Wrath of Titans will be a danger as will be Killer
Crow, but the one the Irish bookies seem to have ignored a little is Ian William's GAS LINE BOY.
He will have no issues with the Going or the trip, Williams will have had ample opportunity
to lay the horse out for the race and you would have assumed he would have been taken out
at the weekend, and not travelled had they any concerns over the Going - given this is day
4 of the meeting, at 10/1 with Bet 365, odds to 4th, he looks cracking value.
Work Watcher also likes MUSHARRIF at Beverley in a race that may not take a lot of winning
with Dance Alone a dangerous rival, but one who may now be in the grip of the handicapper.
