Gowran Park Race 5

Ronan Lawlor Memorial Irish Ebf Mares (Pro/Am) Flat Race

Prize Money: $20,295

LUCIOLE DES BORDES (3) lost out by 1.75L in placing second in a 3721m jumpers flat race at Punchestown end of December. Selected to go one better. WICKED PLEASURE (7) raced prominently prior to debuting with a 3.25L third in a big field 3218m jumpers flat contest at Thurles. Warrants thought as bold show expected. Getaway mare NAN'S CHOICE (4) caught the eye delivering a 4L fourth competing in a 3218m jumpers' flat race at Limerick on debut. Consider. Point-to-point winner RED ACRES GEORGIE (6) is another to consider heading into this contest on the back of a 14.75L seventh over 3721m at Punchestown.
