Thurles Race 1 - 525 Yds (A5)
BALLINALICK BONO (5) is a talented type and proved too classy last time to win by 2 lengths at this track in a handy 29.68 beating Heavens Warrior. Sure to prove hard to beat. EBONYS MUSIC (4) missed the frame last time but prior to that was an effortless A7 winner (29.73) at this track, scoring by 6 lengths. Can find the frame this time. CHILTERN CUTIE (6) has a fair record and proved too classy last time to win by 2 lengths at this track in a handy 30.41 beating Aces Young. The form from her last run stacks up well. Has definite claims. CABRA KATARA (2) is in the mix after placing last time out.

Unplaced two runs back then made impressive progress last time to finish second over 480m at this track. Better last time but not convinced this is his race.

Racing well of late. In the money two starts back at this track then finished third at her latest appearance in an A5 at this track over 480m (29.65). Key runner based on recent form.

Winner two starts back at this track over 480m in 29.54. Last start missed the placings when 5th over 480m at this track in A5. Hard to envisage a win.

Was safely held fresh from a break when sixth (29.99) at this track over 480m. Fitter and bold showing expected.
