19/4/24 Ballinrobe + Limerick

 The best on Thursday at Clonmel came from Hollow Games who was 3rd, the 13/8 shot led from the 4th but was soon passed. He disputed the lead again before the straight but came under pressure dropping to 3rd two out, he kept on at the same pace from the last while upfront Horantzau D'Airy beat Gaelic Arc by 6 1/2 lengths. The other pick Lilian Bland was 4th in a race won by Eddie's Pride who beat Seangoell by 4 lengths. 

 A busy Friday night sees 7 races at both Ballinrobe and Limerick with 2 highlights. 

Ballinrobe 6.07: McGrath Limestone Works Handicap Hurdle. 

3: Zoffanien: A course and distance winner in his career who was last seen finishing a respectable fifth at Naas 54 days ago. He was 9th after the 4th improving from 2 out, he kept on well without threatening on the run-in. He should build on that here off a handy mark and return to winning ways. 

Limerick 6.50: Hugh McMahon Memorial Novice Chase (Grade 3)

1: Favori De Champdou: A useful chaser who picked up his latest win in a Grade 2 at Punchestown in November beating Sandor Clegane by 14 lengths. He fell 2 out in the Irish Grand National 18 days ago but if recovered well he should take all the beating here in an easier looking race.
