Youghal Race 3 - 525 Yds (A3)
WITCHES NORTH (1) was out of the placings last time when fifth at this track (29.57) but scored three back at this track (29.54). The form from his last run is stacking up nicely. Ready to return to form. GOLDMINE SAPHIRE (2) boasts a strong record this course with four wins and four minors from 10 tries. Hit the frame latest (29.57) when second at this track in an A3. Among the main chances. BARNFIELD JIGGER (3) is worth forgiving last start after finishing fifth (29.68) in an A2 at this track over 480m. Expected to run well. SLANEYSIDE CHAMP (4) is a last-start placegetter out of the same box - worth considering.

Form slipped last start when he finished 5th over 480m at this track beaten 7 lengths (29.57) behind Slaneyside Tomas in an A2 on May 2. Will need to improve to feature.

Followed a minor placing at this track two runs ago with a sound second, beaten half a length, last start in an A3 at this track over 480m (29.57). In good form but this is tougher.

Moderate effort last start when he finished 5th in an A2 on May 9 over 480m at this track behind Slaneyside Tomas beaten 6 lengths (29.68). Not one of the leading chances on this occasion.

Didn't fire two runs back then progressed nicely last time to be beaten just 2 lengths into second over 480m at this track. Back on track last time but this looks a stern test.

Winner two starts back at this track over 480m in 29.15. Last start hit the frame over 480m at this track in A3. Be tough to make an impression against this lot.
