BALLYMAC SETANTA 4/1 FOR KIRBY SUCCESS
Peter Farrell
The 2026 Con & Annie Kirby Memorial gets underway this Saturday night at Limerick, with the ante-post betting headed, unsurprisingly, by Ballymac Setanta, who has been installed as a short-priced favourite by BOYLE Sports.
The sensational son of Ballymac Kingdom has begun 2026 in emphatic fashion, and he has been quoted at as short as 4/1 to secure a first Kirby Memorial success for trainer Liam Dowling. The Tralee handler appears to hold a particularly strong hand this year, with recent Juvenile Classic winner Ballymac Deniro identified as a leading contender at 10/1, joint second favourite alongside Lennies Dynamic. Representing the powerful Graham Holland kennel, Bockos Gold and Newinn Spot are next in the market at odds of 12/1.
