VALE BLACKBIRD (5) trailed the lead and fought on well to be beaten 1.5 lengths into second (27.87) at this track in an A5 over 450m. Has performed well from this box with a win and three minor placings to her name from five starts. Leading chance again. SCARTY FINNOULA (3) has been in super consistent form recently with two minors on end before missing the frame latest finishing fourth (28.19) at this track. Consistent performer from this draw with a win and three minor placings to her credit. Worth another chance. BALLINTEMPLE FOG (4) returned a better run last time, finishing in the money (28.25) at this track behind Up From Eskragh in an A5. Has the early speed to land on the pace and can stick on. Hard to beat again. AN GAOITHE RUA (2) can finish much closer after missing a cheque at this track last start.

Got back early in the race last start when third over 450m at this track. Before that won by 2.25 lengths at this track (27.64) beating Long Lasting in an A7 on October 4. Doesn't profile as a likely winner.

Finished third last start over 450m at this track behind Up From Eskragh in an A5. Has the early speed to land on the pace and can stick on. Thereabouts recently and definitely worth including.
