Limerick Race 9

550 Yds (Aa0)

Prize Money: $74,600

HELLO DIEGO (5) boasts a strong record this journey with 10 wins and 10 minors from 23 tries. Recorded a 5 length win (29.59) in an AA0 last time at this track. Looks suited here and rates on top. DROMBEG BANNER (2) had the drop on the lead and went on to be beaten 5 lengths into third (30.13) at this track in an AA0 over 503m. Bold showing expected. CLONBRIEN TREATY (4) is a talented type with an excellent strike rate at this journey. Has been on speed to score at his last couple of runs. Scored latest at this track in a handy 29.78. Yet to miss the placings in four runs from this box, including two wins. Form should stack up. CAGEY BILLY (3) is one of the chances after a minor prize in quick time last start.

Racing well of late. In the money two starts back at this track then finished runner-up at his latest appearance in an AA0 at this track over 503m (29.94). In good form but this is tougher.

Followed a minor placing at this track two runs ago with a sound third, beaten 6 lengths, last start in an AA0 at this track over 503m (30.04). Decent recent form so demands respect.

Talented performer with an excellent strike rate at this journey. Continued the excellent form last start when he scored over 503m at this track in a handy 29.78, beating Flight Club. In line for a hat-trick. Must include.
