Clonmel Race 8 - Next Race Meeting April 2Nd (Pro/Am) Flat Race
SCARECROW (6) wears a tongue strap on debut. Related to several winners and represents powerful connections who have a brilliant strike rate tackling races in this sphere. Likely to prove too good. DETROIT MAVERICK (3) scored on third point to point outing while finished second both starts under rules. All that experience could prove vital and rates the main danger. BRICKFIELD BELLE (8) did well on maiden hurdle outing but was beaten a long way in fifth place at Naas last month. Drops back to a jumpers flat and warrants a market check. BALLYDINE BOY (2) dead-heated on his second start in a point to point and is one to watch.

Third race start today. At debut, didn't finish the race at Farmacaffley P2p February 28 over 4828m. Last start didn't finish the race at Borris House P2p March 1 over 4828m. Cannot enthuse on that performance.

Seven-year-old gelding by Altruistic out of Ayeeyei who has taken a long time to make it to the track. Betting is the best pointer to his chances.

Was at very long odds at debut, 5th of 21 at Naas on February 22 over 3118m, on a wet track; 38 len behind Star Of The Week with 72kg at $67. Shapes as a top-three chance.
