Tramore Race 3 - Mcdonald & Son Builders Mdn Hurdle
SPANISH RISING (8) looked limited on the flat but did well making hurdle debut at Ballinrobe adopting a first time tongue strap last month. Will have improved and should play a major role. ROSARIAN (12) brings best form in this race having finished runner up at Kilbeggan three and a half weeks ago. She receives weight and may go well. JOHNNY RAMBO (1) won nicely a jumpers flat before falling at Cork last week when receiving some each way support. Worth giving another chance as it is still early days. REALLY TRULY (11) wears a hood providing initial stable outing and has winners in the family. One worth watching in the market.

Last outing finished eighth of 13 runners at Kilbeggan on August 8 over 3218m, 7 len behind Convincing carrying 71.5kg at $17. The run before finished fifth of 11 starters at Dundalk All Weather on July 12 over 2414m, 3.5 len behind Baila Conmigo with 52kg at $4.50. Forward showing expected. Must be a chance under today's scenario.

Last start ran last at Limerick on July 11 over 2514m, 26 len behind Magna Gee Gee carrying 59kg at $67 and before that finished 12th of 15 starters at Leopardstown on June 18 over 3017m, 15 len behind Gaoth Chuil carrying 67.5kg at $201. Fitness an issue. Hard to recommend on recent form.
