Weld can continue wonderful record in Leopardstown race with progressive colt

Heavenly Rainbow
6.45 Leopardstown
1pt win

Do not let form figures of 080 put you off Heavenly Rainbow in the 7f apprentice handicap (6.45) at Leopardstown as there have been excuses for his poor run of form. Indeed, it has been the same excuse on each of his last three starts – the draw.

You simply cannot be drawn wide at Fairyhouse when running over a mile or less and he came out of stall 16. It was a similar story at Listowel the time before when he was drawn out in stall 12 and didn't run badly given the uncompromising position he was in turning for home. He came out of stall 16 before that at Naas.
