The best at Thurles on Thursday came from Staffordshire Knot who was 2nd, the 8/11 favourite was 2nd at halfway but a mistake 4 out saw him drop to 4th. He improved to retake 2nd approaching the last but he made no impression allowing Largy Hill to win by 4 lengths. In the other race Harmonya Maker was 3rd in a contest won by Marsh Wren who beat Law Ella by 3/4 of a length.
Dundalk is Friday's destination where on an 8 race card there are 2 highlights.
4.05: Put The Fun In Fundraising At Dundalk Handicap.
2: Hodd's Girl: A decent horse who picked up her career best win on this course 3 weeks ago. She was 4th at halfway making good headway to lead in the final 200 yards, she kept on well easily beating the reopposing Brains by 2 lengths. Despite a 5lb rise she can give another good account here and follow up.
5.45: Racing TV Club Day Handicap.
7: Collective Power: A course and distance winner in his career who picked up his latest victory at Cork in September. He led from a furlong out asserting himself in the final 100 yards coming home by 2 1/4 lengths. He was a creditable 4th here 2 weeks ago and can improve on that continuing his excellent Dundalk record.
