Thurles Race 11 - 525 Yds (A5)
HILLEND GALA (6) had the drop on the lead from trap five before taking over turning, drawing clear to score (29.76) at this track in an A5 over 480m. Looks to have an edge on most of these. CARNEYS FIRMINO (1) was responsible for a modest effort most recently when sixth at this track over 480m behind Cabra Keiser (30.15) in an A4. Key runner on best form. TOO EASY (4) has found the minor placings here at last couple of runs, finishing third last time beaten 6 lengths (29.86). Consistent performer from this draw with a win and three minor placings to his credit. Expecting another good run. CABRA RAMBO (2) had been going along well and was strongly fancied last time but could only manage fourth (30.58) at this track. Has a solid record from this box including two wins and a minor placing.

In the money two back then disappointed when he finished 4th over 480m at this track beaten 13 lengths (30.58) behind Aegean Panther in an A5 on February 14. Has claims on best form.

Missed the frame when sixth at over 480m this track at her last run three-and-a-half months ago. Tough field and looking to others this time.

Racing well of late. In the money two starts back at this track then finished third at his latest appearance in an A4 at this track over 480m (29.86). Decent recent form so demands respect.

Could only manage sixth last time out over 521m at this track, adding to some plain results of late. Not one of the leading chances on this occasion.

Good win last start as odds-on favourite by a nose over 480m at this track in a handy 29.76, beating Kelseys Rose. On a hot winning streak and likely to score again.
