CHAMPION STAKES HEAT PRICES

Sponsors BOYLE Sports can’t separate Bouncing Monarch and Bockos Diamond in the opening semi-final of the BOYLE Sports Champion Stakes with each installed at 5-4 to get their challenge underway with a victory. Solo And Go is next in at 11-2.

It is perhaps no surprise to see Epic Ace at odds-on from an ideal draw on the fence in the second heat. After showing all manner of pace in his recent English Derby campaign, John Kennedy’s star looks set to return to Irish soil with a victory. Ballymac Kamala is clear second best in the market at 7-2 ahead of Juvenile Derby champion Getup The Boy and Gaytime Clyde on 6-1.

Glengar Kane has yet to race at Shelbourne Park but is as short as 11-10 in the last of the three heats. Low Profile and Gold Cup Champion Coloursaregreen are next in at 4-1. The heat prices are available below and correct at the time of publishing.
