Thurles Race 2 - 525 Yds (A5)
BOGGER BERT (5) goes very well at the distance with two wins and a placing from four starts. Was out of placings last time (30.21) at this track in an A5, finishing fifth and beaten 15 lengths. Has the ability and looks a key chance here. GEALLTANAS FAYE (4) broke from a low draw and filled a minor placing last start, beaten only half a length (29.74) behind Swift Jagrati at this track. Expecting another good run. KNOCKSKAGH BUCKO (1) missed the frame last time but just three runs back was a strong A6 winner (29.53) at this track over 480m. Can hit the frame this time. COMAWN PATRICK (3) was well fancied last time on the strength of his recent form but could only manage sixth (1:39.99) at this track.

Finished second last start over 480m at this track behind Swift Jagrati in an A4. Looks well placed and should prove hard to beat.

Could only manage fifth last time out over 480m at this track (30.21) in an A5. Form strong at this course and distance, with two wins and a placing from four starts. With a clean break looks hard to beat.
