Thurles Race 1 - 525 Yds (A4)
KNOCKROE JERSEY (5) boasts a strong record this journey with three wins and three minors from seven tries. Missed the frame latest (29.87) when fourth over 480m at this track in an A4. Looks a leading chance on best. CHARMING MIKE (2) is a handy type who was well below best latest at this track, finishing fifth (30.09) in an A4. Generally a good beginner but was buried in the ruck off the inside last time. Solid record here at the distance winning eight races. Has a strong record out of this box with three wins and a minor placing from four starts. Should be about the mark. CABRA KEISER (3) was well fancied in betting last start but could only manage 8 lengths away in third (29.50). Didn't win last time but still ran one of the quickest times on the card. Must be included in calculations. BOTSWANA (6) is a last-start placegetter in a fast-run race - should be thereabouts.

Form slipped last start when he finished 5th over 302m at this track beaten 8 lengths (18.60) behind Lady Divine in a S2 on March 14. Prepared to overlook.

Racing consistently, including a win three back at this track, before placings at last two runs, the latest when third (29.50) over 480m at this track. Thereabouts at his last couple and is capable of better.

Moderate effort last start when he finished 5th on March 14 over 480m at this track behind My Old Friend beaten 12 lengths (29.75) in an A4. Can't recommend against this lot.

Could only manage fourth last time out over 480m at this track (29.87) in an A4. Boasts good form here at the journey with three wins and three minor placings from seven tries. Has ability and should feature.

Resumed last time out with a solid second over 302m at this track in a S3 (18.25). Will strip fitter and is expected to be competitive.
