Limerick Race 3 - Irish Stallion Farms EBF Maiden Hurdle
DANI DONADONI (1) Did well when 2nd last start in a hurdle at Punchestown and honest performer putting a tidy record together. Should muster plenty of early toe. Rates on top. DOCTOR ELVIS (2) Competitive effort when 2nd last time in a hurdle at Naas and getting better in recent performances. Will give a big sight. JACK THE LAD (4) Lacklustre showing when 4th last run in a hurdle at Navan but solid career start. Has to be included. ORCHARD CROSS (6) 6yo by Order Of St George having first start for trainer Robert Tyner. Market as guide.

Honest race when 2nd last start in a hurdle at Punchestown on a heavy track and putting a tidy record together so far. Likely to be well placed early. Has a very strong case to be winning.

Tidy effort when 2nd last time in a hurdle at Naas and on an upward trajectory in recent races. Major chance.

Started at $4.00 and average at best when 4th last run in a hurdle at Navan but showing consistent performance in races. Not without a chance.

At $81.00 came in 8th last run in a hurdle at Leopardstown but fitter for debut run. Large claim helps. Big improvement required to threaten these.

At $23.00 finished 5th last run in a hurdle at Gowran Park but having second career run. The large claim from James Smith should help. Facing a difficult task today.
