Lismacbryan Hill (7/2), Ballysax Lil' Mick (4/1), Realtin Fantasy (9/2), Rift Valley (5/1), Art Of Unity (7/1), Lismacbryan (10/1), Spirit Of Eagles (10/1), Hero Of The Hour (16/1), Tino Pai (20/1), Miss Princess (20/1), Jordan Breeze (25/1), Carmina Burana (33/1), Fort Star (50/1)

17:20 Dundalk - 3 October 2025 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

ART OF UNITY would have to be feared if turned out again after Thursday's Bellewstown success. Realtin Fantasy can also have a big say lowered in grade with Jordan Breeze, Lismacbryan Hill and Ballysax Lil' Mick all in the picture too.
