Enniscorthy Race Fields - 16th May 2024

METRIC SID (trap 2) made it to the top of the shortlist and plenty can be expected. Indeed, if enjoying the run of things, he can oblige. Aero Tara (trap 1) is fairly new to the track and could find a bit on what she has achieved here so far. It's still a learning game with Roisins Champ (trap 3) as she has limited course experience.

ME GOTTHEPOWER (trap 3) would appear pretty solid against this quality of opposition and is fancied to clear away from these before the run for home. You have to respect the chances of Rathfalla Logan (trap 2), who can ensure the selection doesn't coast home. Providing Vici Tana (trap 4) is brave from the four-box, he would not be without a chance.

HELLO LARRY (trap 2) should soon be involved against these rivals and it'll be disappointing if he doesn't fulfil a major role. There should be a few ripples in the ring for Aunty Phylis (trap 3), who can certainly make a play for gold. Jessies Whisper (trap 6) appeals from the rest, with the others likely to come up a fair bit short.

The search for the winner could start and stop with SOLENT BLUEBELL (trap 5) as she looks to hold all the right credentials to blow these rivals off the park. Tomahurra Dawn (trap 4) is expected to give plenty to the cause and should be in the firing line at the wire. There's been some promising trial work from How Ye Marty (trap 3) and he is worth keeping on side.

BALLINABOLA MILA (trap 2) is fancied despite the fact she has not had many races here although the market may ultimately be the best guide. A solid performance is expected from Maid Of Iron (trap 4), but is she good enough to chin the selection? Mulrankin Range (trap 3) could find a couple of these too warm but she should still figure in the finish.

This looks a fairly straight-forward task for LORD ROCKY (trap 2) and he should take plenty of beating if enjoying the rub of the green. Hilark Bono (trap 5) hasn't had much experience here so she has plenty of scope. Minimum excuses will be entertained if No Ordinary Lily (trap 1) doesn't get amongst them.

While track knowledge is a virtue and ROANNA PEARL (trap 1) is still learning the ropes, this looks a very winnable opportunity. There's little doubt that Ballinabola Eve (trap 3) will improve for more track experience, but is still a player. Foulkscourtanton (trap 2) has a chance if avoiding the one or two obstacles standing in his way.

BARNAHASK JACK (trap 6) is one of the gilt-edged wagers of the day and he should be cashing in against these rivals if things go to plan. Related Set (trap 2) needs to be on his toes at the start but would be a big threat if that is the case. Bonnie Big Jaws (trap 1) should be opening his account sooner rather than later and he can get amongst them.

The consensus of opinion is that PIERCESTOWN DUDE (trap 4) holds solid claims against these rivals and he does look the one they all have to beat. Fiery Jack (trap 1) performed with plenty of tenacity to prevail latest and this penalty doesn't look that severe. Dalcash Dotcom (trap 5) could well divide opinions, but he has the talent to play a part.
