John O'Keeffe Irish Racing Tips

John O'Keefe has a couple of selections from today's racing at Naas.

6.40 NAAS

Al Shira'aa Racing Irish EBF Jannah Rose Stakes (Group 3) (Fillies)

AND SO TO BED - 7/1

Joseph O’Brien endured a luckless Royal Ascot, with several runners hitting the frame but none winning. He now looks to bounce back with AND SO TO BED in the Group 3 Jannah Rose Stakes.

The Kodiac filly was narrowly beaten at Gowran, showing signs of greenness but plenty of promise. A step up in trip looks ideal, and while Faiyum and Darzina are dangers, she’s fancied to hit the frame.

7.10 NAAS

Fox Dunlavin Apprentice Handicap

CUCKALOO HILL - 11/2

CUCKALOO HILL looks a strong contender under Keithen Kennedy, fresh off a big win at Ayr. She returned from a break with a career-best second at Fairyhouse, finishing just over a length behind Fervent, who has since won again off a much higher mark.

That run came on her first try over 1m2f, a trip she’s likely to improve further over. A 5lb rise looks fair, and with form boosted by multiple winners from that race, she has every chance to go one better in this weaker contest.
