Limerick Race 5 - Munster Drilling Beginners Chase
SOME SONG (5) provided just three starts under rules winning on debut at Down Royal in October. Disappointing since but connections waste no time sending him over fences. Could take a step forward. RUSTY HARKNESS (4) remains a maiden and is the second unexposed runner from the Henry De Bromhead stable to go tackling fences for the first time. Market will be the best guide as to his chances. AMERICAN JUKEBOX (1) might be able to improve from a quiet start with fences at Wexford two weeks ago. Worth considering. CLODY DIAMOND (8) hinted ability and is unlikely to be too far away now stepping up in trip.
