Limerick Race 3 - Limerick Racecourse Mares Maiden Hurdle
SAINTE TARTARE (10) placed on racecourse debut at Tramore in November prior to a third tackling further here last month with the runner-up recently landing a Fairyhouse maiden hurdle in decisive fashion. Key player. Stablemate KARAMOJA (4) found the frame attempting a Listed hurdle in France before finishing third on yard debut last month. Pulled-up next time at Clonmel. Can rebound with a bold bid. NASTYA (7) improved second-up to make the frame at Down Royal and enters calculations. TAKETWOTOONE (11) delivered a credible fourth of fifteen effort on Tramore debut and may secure a placing. Something for the Multiples: ARCTIC PIPER (1)
