Limerick Race 5

525 Yds (A5)

Prize Money: $580

SNUGGIE BUNTY (2) was well fancied in betting last start but could only manage 2 lengths away in second (29.80). Can measure up this time. AQUA MAGNOLIA (6) was strongly fancied last time on the back of some good recent form but could only manage fourth (29.95) at this track. Cannot be taken lightly. BALLYELAN SALLY (5) doesn't win out of turn. Finished in the money last time though when third (30.27) at this track. Expected to be in the finish again. KNOCKBAWN NANDO (1) can sneak into the finish again.

Racing well of late. In the money two starts back at this track then finished runner-up at his latest appearance in an A5 at this track over 480m (29.80). Racing well and is the one to beat.

Didn't fire two runs back then progressed nicely last time to finish third over 480m at this track. Better last time but not convinced this is her race.

Could only manage fifth last time out over 480m at this track, a continuation of some ordinary form. Hard to have this time.

Unplaced two runs back then made impressive progress last time to finish third over 480m at this track. The recent effort suggests she is a genuine hope.

In the money two back then disappointed when she finished 4th over 480m at this track beaten 6 lengths (29.95) behind Knockbawn Magic in an A5 on September 18. Around the mark two starts back. Winning chance on that form.
