Limerick Race 4

525 Yds (A1)

Stake: $13,869

TINAHUE PAPPONE (6) goes very well at this journey here having never missed the frame including four wins and two placings. Scored by 5.5 lengths last time (28.40) in an A1 over 480m at this track. Has the ability and looks a key chance here. GWAN MY BOY (4) is a progressive dog who scored his 3rd career win last time at this track, scoring by 2.5 lengths (28.59). Shapes as a top winning chance on latest effort. BLASTOFF COOPER (5) found the frame for the second consecutive time when narrowly beaten into second last time out (28.78) over 480m at this track. Can improve sharply here. ABIGAILS KING (1) was well supported last time but could only manage third (28.82), beaten 3 lengths. Yet to win out of this box but has been in the placings two times from four starts. Overdue and expected to feature again.
