Wednesday's selection Alghazaal finished second. The 9/2 chance was prominent and led after 5 furlongs,he faced a strong challenge from a furlong out and despite keeping on well he was passed in the final 110 yards and with nothing extra he was beaten by Thunder Kiss who came home by a length.
There are 7 races at Clonmel on Thursday where the highlight is at 6.35 when 17 begin the Adare Manor Opportunity Handicap Chase. Marshalled was a very good second on this course when last seen 28 days ago and he should go one better this time. Macs Legend was a 10 length second to Nicole's Milan (who goes again here) in a handicap hurdle on this course at the beginning of March,he makes the switch to chasing here and has a good chance. Diggin Deep was in with a very good shout until he unseated his rider at the last in a handicap chase at Leopardstown 24 days ago,that was his first run for 400 days and for a new yard and he can definitely build on that here. The other one in with a chance is Rock On Barney who has picked up 3 wins from 10 runs this season his last was in a chase at Wetherby in December and despite being a below form 3rd at Leopardstown last time he can still challenge.
Big race prediction: 4: Marshalled.
