Dion Baker^b1²⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-7| J: A J Farragher| T: M Wigham| OR: 66| D

10/3

One win from 24 Flat runs. Respectable third of 10 in handicap at this course (8.6f, 11/1) 20 days ago, having run of race but unable to fend off a pair of 3-y-os. Blinkers on for 1st time and good chance if turning up in similar form.

CIRCLES has been shaping up well at Dundalk of late and can make the journey across the Irish Sea a successful one. Harry The Haggler and Dion Baker head the dangers.
