5/3/24 Thurles

 Monday was another poor day at Leopardstown which saw Malina Girl finish 5th in a race won by Lovely Reaction who beat Pipers Boreen by an easy 9 lengths while in the other contest Aspire Tower failed to finish falling at the last with Horantzau D'airy taking the race beating Paul Marvel by 1 1/4 lengths. 

 A 7 race card takes place at Thurles on Tuesday with 2 main events. 

2.40: Leugh Beginners Chase. 

6: Folly Master: A fair hurdler who picked up his first career win at Punchestown five weeks ago. He challenged from 2 out leading approaching the last, he kept on well easily coming home by 2 1/2 lengths. He can build on that performance here and make his chase debut a winning one. 

5.10: Thurles Handicap Hurdle. 

6: Native Speaker: A promising horse who was a creditable 2nd at Limerick when last seen 68 days ago. He was always in touch sitting 3rd two out, he made no impression in 2nd after a mistake at the last keeping on at one pace. Despite not being a match for the winner that day this stiffer test should suit and he can go one better on handicap debut.
