Clonmel Race 5 - Bulmers Strawberry & Lime Hurdle
FARREN GLORY (2) is a former course and distance winner who has been highly tried in recent months. Needs to get a confidence boosting run under his belt and connections have found a good opportunity. Stablemate KING OF KINGSFIELD (3) was a pacemaker for this operation in recent seasons. Lost his way again past three starts. Worth giving close consideration as better expected now dropping in grade. THECOMPANYSERGEANT (5) turned his form around when second eleven days ago. Can follow up that performance here. ENCANTO BRUNO (1) hasn't been seen for four months. Market to guide on the strength of his chances.

Resumes from a spell after having raced just once last preparation raced on the pace prior to fading finished 11th of 13 starters at Musselburgh on February 1 over 4828m, 26 len behind Red Risk with 71kg at $51. When resuming last campaign finished second in a small field at Down Royal on April 13 2025 over 4023m, 20 len behind Pied Piper with 75.5kg at $4.30. Harder here and happy to risk fresh in this line-up.

Last start finished fourth of 8 starters at Cork on May 10 over 3520m, 3.5 len behind Moon Mission with 67kg at $11. The start before to post a big 4 len win. Tramore on April 19 over 3218m slow going defeating Nirisque with 67kg at $5.50 in a hurdle. Comes into this in ordinary form. Might find this a bit too tough.
