ALMIGHTY BOBBY (1) impressed last time when posted a slick 29.26 win here in a new PB this course and distance. In form and rates on top again. BALLYGUR MICHAEL (4) finished fourth last time (29.66) at this track after winning at his previous two outings. Won at his only start from this draw. Can figure in the finish. HARNEYS CORNER (2) has been hard to follow lately, running fourth (29.33) last time but prior to that ran very well when placed at this track. Can hit the frame this time. GRACES BOY (6) cannot be written off despite a miss here at his latest outing.

Good performance after racing in the second half of the field and improving to score in an A4 by 1.0 len at this track over 480m (29.26). Can make it two on the bounce.

In the money two back then disappointed when she finished 4th on February 21 over 480m at this track behind Cosy Bridie beaten 7 lengths (29.33) in an A2. Look for improvement. Not out of it.

Winner two starts back at this track when scoring by 2 lengths in 29.27. Last start finished 4th on February 19 over 480m at this track behind Sheeraghs Panter beaten 4 lengths (29.66) in an A3. Well worth another chance.

Didn't fire two runs back then progressed nicely last time to finish third over 480m at this track. Cannot enthuse despite that better recent effort.
