Downpatrick Race 5 - J Murdoch Contracts Mdn Hurdle
LYGON LAD (3) First run back from a 70 week break. Performed below standard when 7th last run in a hurdle at Fairyhouse. Likely to bounce back. No shock to see a win. THESILVERBRIDLE (8) Looked good when 2nd last start in a hurdle at Wexford and was on debut last time. Should go well. YOUNG DORAN (6) Resuming after a spell. Tidy effort when 2nd last start in a hurdle at Ballinrobe and having second race start. Well placed and has solid claims. THAT'S IT PADDY (5) Resumes from a break. Fairly underwhelming when 6th last time in a hurdle at Sligo but was a debutant last start. Don't dismiss.

Started at $101.00 and came in 6th last run in a hurdle at Kilbeggan. Needs a mighty effort to win this.

Jumped at $41.00 and sub-standard effort when 15th last run in a hurdle at Galway but was on debut last time. Will benefit with the weight drop. Considerable improvement needed.

Fresh from a 70 week break. Started $9.00 and disappointing outing when 7th last run in a hurdle at Fairyhouse. Likely to bounce back. Gets back and needs luck. Strong claims.

Started at $67.00 and average performance when 13th last time in a hurdle at Bellewstown. Should race on the speed. Could put in your exotics.

First up from a break. Started at $8.00 and unimpressive effort when 6th last time in a hurdle at Sligo but fitter for debut run. Marginal chance.

Started $301.00 and finished 7th last time in a hurdle at Cork. The large claim from Josh Younge should help. Unlikely to feature.
