The line-up contains a number of interesting angles. Game Point has been frustratingly consistent without getting his head in front, notching five consecutive runner-up finishes and shaping as though a first win is imminent if the right set-up comes his way. Retracement represents a trainer adept with staying handicappers and steps back up in trip after two runs that may have been on the sharp side. Nocturnal, meanwhile, advertised her credentials with a strong late run to finish second at Down Royal and could be suited by the expected pace scenario here.

Final Voyage and San Andreas bring notable all-weather records, both capable of producing big performances at this level, while Walhaan is a model of consistency at this venue and returns after a recent spin over fences. Adding depth to the field, Cheers Again has three course wins to his name and showed signs of returning to form with a good third at Leopardstown last month. The make-up of the race suggests a strong early gallop, with tactical nous and proven course adaptability likely to prove decisive in the closing stages.
Best Bet for Red God Handicap at Dundalk 5:10 – Cheers Again to Win
At BettingTips4You, we believe in delivering a single, high-quality prediction for each event rather than flooding readers with multiple suggestions. This ensures our selections are focused, transparent, and easy to track for long-term profitability.
Cheers Again fits the profile of a horse capable of striking in a competitive handicap. All three of his career victories have come at Dundalk, and crucially, he has shown the ability to perform over a mile on this surface with strong closing fractions. His recent Leopardstown third suggested he retains both ability and appetite for racing, especially given his prior runs on turf had not been particularly inspiring. Now returning to his favoured Polytrack, he finds himself racing off a mark 4lb lower than when finishing a close fourth here in February, which could prove a significant advantage in a tightly contested race.
Trainer Paul Flynn has been candid about the gelding’s liking for the track, and the reinstatement of Jack Cleary—who partnered him for two of his wins—adds further confidence. With a solid draw and the potential for a race shape that allows him to settle before unleashing his late kick, Cheers Again looks primed to take advantage of conditions tailor-made for his style.
