Limerick Race 10

525 Yds (A6)

Prize Money: $444

BALLYMARTIN GARY (6) produced a modest effort most recently when sixth at this track over 480m behind Cabriol Carol (30.05) in an A5. Solid formlines coming through his last run. Worth another chance. CHERRYGROVE ICE (1) has been settling off the speed lately, finishing fourth (30.14) last time in an A5 at this track. Remains without a win from the draw but has been in the placings three times from five attempts. Worth another chance. BRICKFIELD JOYCE (3) is a last-start placegetter at this track and distance - should be thereabouts. HONEYPOUND SOFIA (2) has been beaten for early speed lately, last time finishing sixth (31.18) in an A6 at this track. The form from her last run stacks up well. Has ability and can atone.

Finished fourth two starts ago then regained form last time out when she found one better over 480m in an A6 at this track. Cannot enthuse despite that better recent effort.

Followed a minor placing at this track two runs ago with a sound second, beaten one length, last start in an A6 at this track over 480m (29.86). In form but this might be too tough.

In the money two back then disappointed when he finished 5th over 480m at Galway beaten 6 lengths (30.18) behind Killaspic Queen in an A5 on December 21. Major threat on best form.
