Dan to prove the man at Tralee in race he can earn winning lead

GLORY DAN has a great chance to lead in Tralee's A4 over 525 yards at 12.04 and Seamus Cooper's charge should take a fair bit of beating as a result.

A three-times winner, twice at this level, he may have been a little unfortunate last time when finding trouble having recovered from a slow start.

Sectionals suggest a sharper exit from traps today is likely to result in an early lead and he can quickly build an unassailable advantage.

John O'Shea's Sporting Citizen (11.13), the syndicate-owned Downbytheriver (12.21) and Michael Scanlan's Fagans Wildcat (1.29) are other Kingdom Stadium fancies.

There is subsequent Tuesday afternoon action at Valley plus an evening card at Star Pelaw with the respective suggestions being Donna Davy's Bluejig Duke (3.41) and Rob McCarthy's Glengiblinbadger (8.16).
