30/1/24 Limerick

 Monday's winner at Punchestown was Bioluminscence, the 4/7 favourite tracked the leader early sitting 2nd at halfway. Despite a slight mistake 2 out she improved to lead approaching the straight keeping on well on the run-in to beat Tareze by 3 1/4 lengths. The other pick Champagne Admiral finished 5th in a race won by Built By Ballymore who beat Silver King by an easy 12 lengths. 

 Limerick stages 7 races on Tuesday where there are 2 highlights. 

3.45: Limerick Novice Handicap Hurdle.

2: Mitiva: A good-looking horse who was a creditable 4th at Punchestown when last seen 16 days ago. She led at the 2nd but came under pressure and was passed before the last dropping to 3rd, she weakened in the final strides so a return to 2m will suit. She just gets the vote here and can pick up her 2nd career win. 

4.20: Irish Stallion Farms EBF Auction (Pro/Am) Flat Race. 

1: Machismo: A good point-to-point winner who looks a useful prospect. He is a half-brother to both Keeper Hill and Dargiannini who have both had decent careers hurdling and chasing. Since his win he has changed ownership and looks like the one to beat here as he attempts to open his rules account.
