Limerick Race 5

525 Yds (A1)

Prize Money: $562

CUSHIE TORNADO (5) could manage only second at this track last time but impressed when clocking a quick 28.96 over 480m at this track three starts ago. Must include on winning run three back. ZINGIBER (3) settled down midfield and held his position to the line when finishing 4th (29.51) at this track. Returns to a course where he has performed well. Has a very good strike-rate from this draw, with three wins from six starts. Has winning claims on his best figures. TWO PINTS (2) broke from the inside and chased down the leaders to score by 0.8 lengths (29.21) at this track in A1 over 480m. Ran one of the fastest times on the program in his latest win. Makes plenty of appeal if runs up to latest. KILLDUFF BARKLEY (6) can return to form after missing the top-three at this circuit last time out.

Comments

In the money two back then disappointed when he finished 4th over 480m at this track beaten 4 lengths (29.51) behind Two Pints in an A1 on November 14. Thereabouts at the last couple. Suited here and likely to run well.

Unplaced two runs back then made impressive progress last time to finish third over 480m at this track. Faces a tough assignment this time.

Finished fifth two starts ago then regained form last time out when he found one better over 480m in an A1 at this track. Put the writing on the wall last start so follow him up.
