Ian Fortune's weekly Irish Focus - Wednesday 15th May edition

THE weekly Irish Focus, which takes in all the big racing in Ireland, now appears on sisracing.tv

Kilkenny is first up with the quarter-final action in the Champion Open Unraced 525 followed by the run of the round in the Friends Of Newbridge A1 Derby.

There is a Shelbourne Park double-header with Friday's rescheduled opening heat of the Islandbridge Open 350 plus a too-good debut in an unraced stake, then Saturday's Champion 550 semis.

The segment concludes with final action from Curraheen Park with the Spring Derby decider, followed by the Clonbrien Treaty Limerick Oaks denouement.
