Sunday was another mixed day. At Tramore Something Sweet was 5th. The 5/1 chance was always in midfield briefly sitting 4th. She dropped to 8th 3 out,she made no impression only moving up to 5th at the last the 9/2 shot My Oakclahome won. At Dundalk Alhaazm won,the 2/1 favourite was always close to the leaders and under pressure kept on well inside the final furlong coming home by a head.
It's another double bill on Monday with 8 races at Limerick and 7 at Tramore. The main contest at Limerick is the opener at 1.45 when 18 begin the Crecora Mares Maiden Hurdle. Global Equity is a useful hurdler who was a respectable 5th in the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Mares Novices Hurdle Championship Final at Fairyhouse when last seen 15 days ago,this should be an easier race and she should make the most of the drop in class. Eyre Square picked up her first win in a bumper at Wexford 30 days ago,she makes her hurdles debut here and is the main challenger. An Taibhse is a promising horse who was a good third in a novice hurdle at Fairyhouse at the beginning of January,she has more to offer and should go well. The other one to look at is Marmolata who didn't need to be at her best when winning a claimer at Fairyhouse when last seen in October and she has an outside chance on this her first run for Willie Mullins. The big race at Tramore is the 6.10 when 15 start the Tramore Promenade Beginners Chase. Half Shot is a fair chaser who was a good second on his season return at Clonmel 27 days ago, he goes significantly back up in trip here and he should go one better. Stucker Hill picked up his last win 16 runs ago and was 10th at Thurles towards the end of March but if on-song he will be a major player. Mister Butler was 9th in a handicap hurdle at Clonmel 18 days ago however he switches from hurdles to chasing here and enters calculations as does No Thanks who picked up his career best win on his last hurdle outing at Down Royal in March and he finished a very creditable 4th at Dundalk 19 days ago. He makes his chase debut here and should be considered.
Big race predictions: Limerick:6: Global Equity Tramore: 3: Half Shot.
