Limerick Race Fields - 16th May 2024

HONEYPOUND HALEY (trap 3) often commands a chunk of the market and that should be the case again today as she looks the one to side with. For all the fact that Yellowstone Boy (trap 6) is not the most experienced round here, a big run is possible.. Konate (trap 1) looks solid to make the frame and should be treated accordingly.

Supporters of INISLOSKY PETAL (trap 5) will be hoping she turns up with her A-game as this contest is very much for the taking if she does so. Everything points to a big run from Ballinulty Flip (trap 3), who should be thereabouts for sure. Killduff Kyler (trap 2) would enter the equation if avoiding a bump or two early on.

VARRA WHISTLER (trap 5) looks better than these. Although needing the usual amount of good fortune, there'll few better bets on the card if she gets it. Having limited experience of the venue, Lady Babet (trap 2) could find a bit on the clock. Thunderin Cassie (trap 3) has scant experience of this venue so expect more today.

KILGARRAN MICKEY (trap 6) is the standout bet of the meeting. As with most, he will need to tread carefully early, but should be in a position to kick off the second bend. Clorane Syd (trap 4) has little margin for error but can keep the selection honest throughout. Gower Magic (trap 3) has the credentials to play a role, although it may just be a supporting one.

ADAMANT EMILY (trap 3) is a recent arrival here so has scope for improvement. With a hassle-free run through the early metres, this race is for the taking. Honeypound Sofia (trap 2) has talent and she can be expected to be on the front end when push comes to shove. If avoiding being the meat in the sandwich early, Astro Breeze (trap 4) would have a chance.

The hopes are sky-high so far as LOUGHGUR HAPPY (trap 6) is concerned and it should be a case of 'go get 'em sunshine' with normal fortune in running. If Knockbawn Blond (trap 4) looks lively from the four-box he can be expected to be bustling up the selection. Will the support come for Bark Wahlberg (trap 5)? It looks as if he has a chance of making the numbers.

COURT ARIEL (trap 6) is certainly one of the leading hopes in this contest and she will hopefully get the job done by kicking in the turbo mid-race. Daystar (trap 1) would appear to have a leading chance and can take advantage if the tip messes up. Wee Norrie (trap 2) is equipped to ask these one or two questions with a trouble-free passage.

The chances of CARRIGMORE JOLLY (trap 3) are well above average and she certainly ticks more boxes than the opposition. On that basis, she is hard to oppose. The claims of Tyrap Benji (trap 5) can't go unnoticed and he is entitled to be hunting up the selection. Killduff Barkley (trap 2) should feel more comfortable in this and can make a contribution.
