Unfortunately the last two races at Naas didn't get the green light after an inspection due to the bad weather around that part of Ireland, which meant that Cairnzy's selection for Sunday didn't get to run.

Uallrightharry 9/2 – Plumpton 2.45
I was on the receiving end of when the old boy Uallrightharry made all at Fontwell to beat my horse Record High, with my selection today being the outsider of the field that day at Fontwell. Despite him being a 13-year-old now, I'm hoping he can land a second win in succession, which might be against the odds due to his age.
Plumpton is going to be very testing as the ground is close to Heavy on Sunday night and they are expecting a decent amount of rain, so it's going to be a real stamina test over today's trip of 3m 2f, so knowing Uallrightharry relishes the swamp like ground conditions and stays very well is a huge factor in me wanting to be on his side for today's race. The only downfall for today's race is that it is an amateur jockey race, which is never an ideal situation as the riders in these types of races are more prone to making errors, but the benefit of having Rian Corcoran on board is that he does offset 7lbs which negates the 6lb rise he had for the win at Fontwell, and in turn puts him on a very light racing weight of 10st 3lbs, which is a huge benefit when you take the treacherous ground conditions.
This race probably isn't the strongest of races. The top weight is a player for this race, but shouldering top weight isn't ideal. He also has very bad ground to deal with, which isn't ideal as he does seem best on good to soft, but he does have the best recent form in the race. Fern Hill and I See You Well are both well handicapped but have shown very little in recent times, and evidently appear to be on the slide. Basford was a runner-up in recent weeks to another of my recent winning selections, and in my opinion, he doesn't look like a straightforward ride and it's questionable about his attitude to winning.
The form of Uallrightharry who beat Record High now appears to be a decent piece of form, which isn't a surprise given the way the runner-up was caressed through the race by Sean Bowen. The runner-up managed to win next time out, coming at Fontwell yesterday.
