TOOLMAKER JOSEPE (1) finished in the placings last time but could not have been more impressive three back in his dazzling 28.19 win at Limerick over 480m. Rates a leading chance if runs up to recent winning time. CHEQUE FOR CASH (4) goes very well this trip starting 23 times for eight wins and eight minors. Comes off a (28.13) win last time, scoring by 4 lengths in an A1 over 480m at this track. Can hit the frame with the right run. LEMON ORLA (2) is progressing well scoring last time out (28.26) at Curraheen Park and bringing up her 8th career win. The form out of the last run is proven to be strong. Flying at the moment and expecting another big run. LA PEPINILLO (6) was strongly supported last start but missed the frame when sixth (33.08), beaten 4.5 lengths.

Unplaced two runs back then made impressive progress last time to be beaten just 2 lengths into second over 503m at Limerick. Heading in the right direction and well placed to fill another top-three spot.

Racing consistently, including a win two back at this track, before a 8 length third (28.77) over 480m at this track last time. Hit the frame last time but will need to improve further.
