Limerick Race 4

525 Yds (A4)

Stake: $652

THUNDERIN CHANCE (1) is better than last start when fifth (29.72) in an A4 at this track over 480m. The form from his last run stacks up well. Should be very hard to beat this time. IBBA NAYR (3) has been mixing form lately, hitting the frame two back before finishing fourth (29.85) at this track in an A4. This looks easier and expected to improve sharply. WOODPARK ROCK (5) was well fancied in betting last start but could only manage 3 lengths away in third (29.71). Bold showing expected. MELLON SOPHIE (4) should be thereabouts despite an unplaced run here most recently.

Latest effort finished 5th on April 24 over 480m at this track behind Honeypound Tempo beaten 2.25 lengths (29.72) in an A4. The form from his last run is stacking up nicely. Follow up.

Failed to impress last start over 480m at this track when beaten 6 len (29.92) behind Tyrap Robin on May 1. Will not find this easy. Not keen.

In the money two back then disappointed when she finished 4th on May 1 over 480m at this track behind Tyrap Robin beaten 5 lengths (29.85) in an A4. Thereabouts of late and rates highly this line-up. Expected to be in the finish.

In the money at this track at his last couple of starts, most recently finishing third over 480m. Won't find this much harder. Definite contender.
