Clonmel Race 8 - John Walsh (Mainstown) Memorial Flat Race
It’s All Clear (4) brings the most recent substance, 4th at Kilbeggan over 3319m beaten 5.05L after a Clonmel 3926m 5th, and looks the one to beat. MARTYMILL (6) was 4th at Fairyhouse over 3218m then 6th there, and is a key chance freshened. HOOF AND HUSTLE (2) resumes after an 11th of 12 at Leopardstown over 3218m and can improve. Others with race experience like BOBS HOUSE (1) and MINDYOURHEADMIKE (7) have sizeable margins to bridge.
