6/4/23 Bellewstown + Clonmel

 The best at Leopardstown on Wednesday came from Homeless Songs who was 2nd, the 13/8 favourite tracked the leaders and sat 4th at halfway. She made headway from 2 out challenging 150 yards from the finish she kept on well but made no impression on the winner Buckaroo who came home by a neck. In the earlier race Azazat finished 3rd, the 1/1 favourite was 6th at halfway improving entering the straight. She was 3rd a furlong out keeping on at one pace in the closing stages, upfront Savethelastdance beat Boogie Woogie by 2 1/4 lengths. 

 A Thursday double header sees 7 races at both Bellewstown (Rearranged from Saturday) and Clonmel with 3 features. 

Bellewstown 1.20: Irish Stallion Farms EBF Median Auction Maiden. 

9: Fast Tara: Improved on her debut when 3rd at Dundalk on her last outing in October. This stiffer test of stamina should suit and despite being off 181 days she has shown enough in her two runs to suggest she can win this on her return. 

Bellewstown 3.05: His Majesty's Cup Rated Race.

6: Sam's Xpress: A promising horse who arrives in good form after picking up a career best win at Dundalk 3 weeks ago. He travelled well coming home by an easy 3 3/4 lengths and another performance like that may be enough here as he looks to complete a quick-fire hat-trick. 

Clonmel 4.35: Adare Manor Opportunity Handicap Chase. 

3: Emancipator: A decent individual who took this race by an impressive 20 lengths 12 months ago. Despite being pulled up two out at Gowran Park when last seen 70 days ago he switches back to chasing here and can take this again.
