Limerick Race 11

525 Yds (A5)

Stake: $627

KONATE (1) was well supported last time but could only manage third (29.36), beaten 1.5 lengths. Capable of going well again. KNOCKBAWN PLUTO (3) stalked the lead but wound up strongly to score (29.67) at this track in A6 over 480m. Can make it back-to-back wins. HONEYPOUND FIADH (2) stalked the lead and fought on well to finish 2.5 lengths away in second (29.51) at this track in an A6 over 480m. Comes out of a solid form race last start. Can measure up. VARRA LASRACH (5) was well fancied in betting last start but could only manage 5.5 lengths away in second (29.60). Overdue and is among the main hopes.

Heading in the right direction and looks close to a maiden win. Fair last time over 480m at this track where she raced on speed but faded to finish second (29.51). Likely to be much improved on the experience.

Good win last start as odds-on favourite by a neck over 480m at this track in a handy 29.67, beating Hello Oppy. Makes plenty of appeal on the back of the latest win.

Didn't fire two runs back then progressed nicely last time to finish second over 480m at this track. Faces a tough assignment this time.
