Limerick Race 4 - Master Chefs Novice Hurdle (Listed)

EMERALD ENIGMA (4) Fought on well to win a tight contest last run in a hurdle at Navan and showing consistent performance in races. Paul Townend is a smart booking and dropping weight. Major player. DALLAS STAR (1) Brave effort to win narrowly by 1/2L last run in a hurdle at Navan and going up in trip. Displays good tactical speed. Gets some weight relief. Will be competitive. TINTO DE VERANO (3) Racing fresh today after a break. Was a comprehensive winner by 6L last run in a hurdle at Ballinrobe. Include in chances. PETS GEORGINA (6) Competitive effort when 3rd last run in a hurdle at Killarney. Solid place bet prospects.

Second-up today. First-up after six months finished 16th of 18 starters at Listowel on September 20 over 3721m, 43 len behind Fraher Field carrying 72.5kg at $15. Previously second-up won by 1.75 len Cork on April 5 over 3822m defeating Poetic Twist with 71.5kg at $6 in a hurdle. Unlikely to be contesting the finish here.
