Limerick Race 8

525 Yds (Aa0)

Stake: $475

BALLYMAC LUCIA (1) is an honest type in the frame at seven of 18 starts including last time when third (28.30) over 480m at this track. Goes very well from this trap. Has the inside draw and looks tough to beat. SOLE MIO (3) did a good job to finish third last time out over 480m at this track (28.49) in an AA0, the second top-three finish on the trot. Can hit the frame this time. SKYWALKER SCHAR (2) is yet to break through in six starts but has run a number of placings. Was in the placings again last time finishing third (28.48) at this track. Expected to feature. FUN INTHE RUN (6) was a (28.51) winner last time out at this track from Box 6. One of the prime contenders.

Unplaced two runs back then made impressive progress last time to be beaten just 1.5 lengths into third over 480m at this track. Looks all set to find the winners' list.

Didn't fire two runs back then progressed nicely last time to finish third over 480m at this track. Back on track last time but this looks a stern test.

Followed a minor placing at this track two runs ago with a sound third, beaten 2.5 lengths, last start in an AA0 at this track over 480m (28.49). Going well but happy to watch this time.

Racing well of late. In the money two starts back at this track then finished runner-up at his latest appearance in an AA0 at this track over 480m (28.68). Not to be underestimated.

Missed the frame three back but has since scored back to back wins, the latest an AA0 at this track (28.51). Top-three hope with the right run.
