Limerick Race 3

525 Yds (A4)

Stake: $680

RIVERDALE RUDY (4) tends to drift back and work into the race, finishing out of the placings two back before charging home into the minors latest when third (29.75) in an A4 at this track last time. Deserves serious consideration. PETES NOAH (5) goes very well this course and distance starting 14 times for five wins and five minors. Missed the frame latest (29.44) when fourth over 480m at this track in an A4. Can feature in the finish. BALLINULTY TEX (2) has been beaten for early speed lately, last time finishing sixth (30.12) in an A3 at this track. Solid record here at the distance winning seven races. One of the main contenders. IBBA NAYR (1) is in the mix despite missing out at this track last time.

Unplaced two runs back then made impressive progress last time to finish third over 480m at this track. The recent effort suggests he is ready to win.

Below his best last time over 480m at this track (29.44) in an A4, finishing 6 lengths away in fourth. Boasts good form here at the journey with five wins and five minor placings from 14 tries. Looks hard to beat with even luck.
