Thurles Race 4 - 525 Yds (A4)
BLACK SHINE (5) had the drop on the lead and went on to be beaten 4 lengths into second (29.44) at this track in an A7 over 480m. Capable of going well again. GIDDYUP CASH (2) failed to feature last start after being shuffled back early at this track, but prior to that won by one length at this track (29.90) beating Ebonys Music in an A5 on June 6. Can figure in the finish. BALLINALICK BONO (4) ran below best last time finishing sixth (30.09) over 480m at this track from Box 5. Has a strong record from box 4, including two wins. Can do much better this time. CODE TRIGGER (6) was well fancied in betting last start but could only manage 3.5 lengths away in third (29.78). Overdue and expected to feature again.

Could only manage fifth last time out over 480m at this track, a continuation of some ordinary form. Has failed to show enough to come into contention.

Winner two starts back at this track when scoring by one length in 29.90. Last start finished last over 480m at this track beaten 3.5 lengths (29.61) behind Bogger Notorious in an A5 on June 13. Better than that and worth following up.

Disappointed last start over 480m at this track when beaten 14 len (30.59) behind Bogger Notorious on May 30. Needs to find a bit more to test these.

Races well at this course and distance. Last start finished last over 480m at this track beaten 8 lengths (30.09) behind Giddyup Cash in an A5 on May 30. On best form is more than capable. Keep safe.

Didn't fire two runs back then progressed nicely last time to finish second over 480m at this track. The recent effort suggests he is ready to win.

Racing well of late. In the money two starts back at this track then finished third at her latest appearance in an A4 at this track over 480m (29.78). Key runner based on recent form.
