20/4/23 Tipperary & Kilbeggan

 Wednesday's winner was American Sonja, the 11/8 favourite made progress from 2 out improving further to lead soon after. She stayed on strongly inside the final furlong comfortably beating All Lies Ahead by 3 1/4 lengths. The other tip Hey Whatever was a non-runner in a race won by Snowcapped who beat Collage by a head.

Tipperary 4.00: Irish Stallion Farms EBF Race.

3: Leap Year: A good-looking newcomer who is related to City Runner and a half-brother to Flying Rock. Is bred to go further than this races distance but he should have enough to make a winning start for a trainer who took this 12 months ago. 

Kilbeggan 6.20: KilbegganRaces.com Handicap Hurdle. 

7: Ballyglass Beauty: Has been a course winner in his career and was an encouraging 3rd at Thurles when last seen 33 days ago. That was his first run after a 12 week break and despite having no extra late on his previous form shows why he is the pick and he has to be taken seriously here.
