Thurles Race 1 - 525 Yds (A6)
RATHFALLA SALAH (4) flew the lids last start and led throughout to register his maiden win by 1.5 lengths at this track over 480m (29.73). Looks the one to beat. GRIMBOT LAYA (3) has a strong overall record having four wins and eight places from 18 starts including a last start second (29.80) over 480m at this track. Super consistent and can feature with the right run. ACES YOUNG (2) comes off an average performance last start when sixth at this track over 480m behind Chiltern Cutie (1:39.99) in an A5. Was in the money prior to that. Can figure in the finish. ENCANTO (6) gets a chance to improve on an unplaced run at her latest outing at this circuit.

Below best last start when he finished 5th over 480m at this track beaten 4 lengths (29.80) behind Gortkelly Pixie in an A4 on June 13. Be tough to make an impression against this lot.

In the money two back then disappointed when she finished last over 480m at this track beaten 48 lengths (1:39.99) behind Chiltern Cutie in an A5 on June 6. Mixing her form but shapes as a genuine contender under these conditions.
