Pretty Polly Stakes Betting Tip
Our Pretty Polly Stakes tip has to go to Jim Bolger’s Finsceal Beo. Bolger, will be hoping for a big double this weekend at The Curragh, firstly with the filly in the Pretty Polly and then with Epsom Derby winner. New Approach, who will be going for the Irish Derby on Sunday. Finsceal Beo has a great a chance of achieving at least half of the double. She runs against eight others and will no longer have to face stablemate, Lush Lashes, who has been withdrawn. It is an excellent field, but Finsceal Beo, who ran so well when third behind Haradasun in the Queen Ann Stakes at Royal Ascot last week, has come on lots for the run and will be difficult to beat.

The race has attracted 8 other entries who look likely to race on ground that will be no better than good to firm. English trainer’s, Richard Fahey and Sir Michael Stoute have entered Anna Pavlova and Promising Lead respectively, however, Ana Pavlova is a soft ground lover and may be withdrawn if there is no rain between now and race time. Kevin Prendergast has entered Marjalina, a huge disappointment on her last run in the Blue Wind Stakes, but the stable think can she bounce straight back. They also have Beach Bunny, who will be more an outsider. Aiden O’Brien runs; Ice Queen and Sail. With Ballydoyle’s success in Group One’s lately, these two must be in with a big chance. It will be interesting to see which one jockey, Johnny Murtagh, rides. Dermot Weld enters, Mad About You, who was narrowly beaten in the Irish 1000 Guineas and on that form she comes to The Curragh with a great chance. Despite the obvious quality in the race we are going to stick with our tip, Finsceal Beo, a double classic winner is always going to be a top draw horse and she will certainly be the one they have to beat.
