Sligo Race 4 - John Gilligan Memorial Nursery Hcp
TATIANNA (1) Handy enough when winning by 2 1/4L last run at Down Royal and demonstrating upward trajectory in recent races. Has the speed to overcome the wide draw. This field suits. HI CORBETT COURT (2) Finished 5th last time at Cork. Should improve from the last run and competing at a lower grade. Will be pushing for a forward position early. Has drawn the rails. Must be considered. MR MONTAUK (8) Looked good when 3rd last time at Down Royal. Will give a big sight. TWO BRIGADE (3) Mediocre display when 6th last time at Bellewstown and facing formidable competition. Should muster plenty of early speed. One at a bit of odds.

Won by 2 1/4L last run at Down Royal and on an upward trajectory in recent races. Should be rolling forward early from the wide draw. Major player who should go very close.

Started at $7.00 and finished 5th last time at Cork. Should improve from the last run and up against a less competitive field. Should race on the speed. Solid chance.
