REAPER A REWARD..

Trainer Ger Lyons can land another good prize at Dundalk this afternoon with The reaper in the Bar One racing Handicap.

Pat Smullen, who rides Calm Bay, has prospects of a double aboard Strandhill in the first division of the mile handicap.She does have a wide draw to deal with but still gets the vote ahead of Kenton Street.The Joe Murphy-trained runner faces no easy task in trying to concede weight all round, but he has a number of factors in his favour.Gush would look to be the answer in the other two-year-old maiden.On his most recent start, The reaper had to settle for second in a five-furlong handicap at Tipperary last week.But they do more than that. They also protect your car from abrasions if it gets close to a corner while turning. And they add a lot of style to the looks of your car as well. Therefore when you choose to install a step bar in your car it is a wise decision because you get more than one benefit. You have a wide choice of step bars or nerf bars as they are also called to choose from. You can make the choice conveniently by going online.

Like trying to climb two, maybe even three, steps at a time. And you can help them by installing a step bar on your car. Step bars make it easier for people to climb into a car.A good field also goes to post for the extended 10- furlong Irish Stallion Farms EBF August Handicap where Northgate is taken to defy top weight.He is well treated by the conditions of this race and he should not be opposed.Also, he is drawn against the rail which will enable him to hold a good position throughout. It is also worth remembering that Northgate ran a fine race off just a one pound lower mark to finish second in this race 12 months ago.Three months ago at Naas he posted an excellent effort in defeat to chase home the talented rose Bonheur in a good sixfurlong handicap.Firstly, he is a far better horse on Polytrack than he is on turf, so his latest second in a good handicap at the Curragh on Derby weekend is extremely encouraging.Pat Smullen, who rides Calm Bay, has prospects of a double aboard Strandhill in the first division of the mile handicap.The consistent three-year-old, whose two victories have both come at this track, is taking on quite a decent field.She does have a wide draw to deal with but still gets the vote ahead of Kenton Street.The four-year-old comes from the inform Denis Cullen yard and there was a lot to like about her reappearance run at Leopardstown last month.

Gush would look to be the answer in the other two-year-old maiden.
