17/4/23 Tramore

 Sunday's only winner was Point Lonsdale, the 6/4 favourite tracked the leader in 2nd challenging from a furlong out. He led inside the final furlong staying on strongly to beat Visualisation by 1 1/2 lengths. In the other Group race Power Under Me was 6th, the 5/1 shot was 3rd two out but made no impression soon after dropping down the field, upfront Goldana won beating Mea Domina by 1 3/4 lengths. Over at Tramore Tyre Kicker finished 4th,the 9/2 chance was 2nd when challenging 2 out. He soon made no impression dropping to 4th and having no extra in the final 50 yards, Brideswell Lad won beating Priory Park by 3 lengths. 

 Another week begins with a second day at Tramore where on a 7 race card we have 2 features. 

 5.45: Summer Flat Racing July 11th Handicap Hurdle. 

7: Jump The Shark: A promising horse who was a very creditable 2nd at Cork when last seen 25 days ago. Despite coming under pressure at the last he kept on well on the run-in only losing by 1/2 a length. He is going in the right direction and can go one better here. 

6.15: Tramore Promenade Beginners Chase. 

3: Hardwired: A fair chaser who despite not winning in 20 starts was a respectable 3rd in a handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse on his last outing 79 days ago. He switches from hurdles back to chasing here and in a race where lot’s have something to prove he should be well up there giving him the vote to finally pick up a win.
