26/8/21 Tipperary

 It was a midweek win for my pick Malina Girl. The 8/15 favourite tracked the leaders and made headway to lead before 4 out. She drew clear before the last keeping on well to romp home by 14 lengths. 

There is an 8 race card at Tipperary on Thursday with two feature contests, the first is the 6.00 when 16 line-up for the Coolmore Stud No Nay Never Fairy Bridge Stakes. Pretty Gorgeous was a smart performer as a 2 year old and she looks like she is working her way back to that level. She was 7th in the Falmouth Stakes at Newmarket last time and going down in grade here means she should get back to winning ways. Pearls Galore is a decent filly who didn't need to improve to win the Brownstown Stakes at Fairyhouse 46 days ago and she has a big shout. The other one in with a chance is Roca Roma,she picked up her latest win with a career best performance in a handicap at Killarney 45 days ago. That run is why she is feared but it really is difficult to see past Pretty Gorgeous. The other highlight comes at 6.30 when 16 begin the listed Abergwaun Stakes. Frenetic is a smart filly who was at her best when winning a handicap at Cork 34 days ago,she beat White Lavender by 3/4 of a length and should win again here. Urban Beat last picked up a win at The Curragh in June and was a respectable 3rd to Nunthorpe winner Winter Power in a listed race at York last time so he definitely enters calculations. The shortlist is completed by Harry's Bar a good horse who has nine wins on the flat in his career,he was a creditable second in a handicap at Dundalk on his last run 11 days ago. He was also second in listed company at Naas in April so he is definitely worth a look here.

Big race predictions: 6.00: 13: Pretty Gorgeous  6.30: 12: Frenetic.
