Tralee Race Fields - 10th May 2024

It should be all to play for so far as BLUE FLOWER (trap 5) is concerned as she should be in position to strike as they power through half way. Cheeky Remi (trap 6) should attract support as she is capable of giving the selection a run for their money. Romany Brown (trap 1) should feel more comfortable in this and can make a contribution.

The path to success for CHEAP SANDWICHES (trap 5) could be a smooth one today, especially if he becomes engaged the moment the lids ping open. Mulcair Harry (trap 1) has a profile that could certainly worry the selection and he is rightly feared. Tree Top Steve (trap 2) won top prize despite things not going entirely to plan last time out.

The hopes are sky-high so far as BALLYMAC JOSHY (trap 4) is concerned and it should be a case of 'go get 'em sunshine' with normal fortune in running. Grouchos Scooby (trap 1) should have plenty to offer and he rates the biggest danger to the selection. If there's a few quid around for Bobsleigh Spark (trap 2), it may be worth taking the hint.

COOLAVANNY PERCY (trap 4) has sound claims of walking off with the gold medal from this contest and he figures in the forefront of all calculations. The plans of Ballymac Kinga (trap 6) shouldn't take a knock because of the draw and she is feared. Mrbluewood (trap 1) is no mug when things go to plan and he can be given a chance too.

The layers aren't expected to be flamboyant with their chalk, but that's because JOVIS (trap 6) looks much the best in this field. From The Belly (trap 4) is a threat even though he may not get a great deal of assistance from the draw. Millridge Tydus (trap 2) is very much on the shortlist and can get amongst them if things go to plan.

SHIMMERING WATER (trap 5) is the obvious one and he should prevail with a degree of good fortune around the opening turns. Carra Ranger (trap 1) has a good draw on the fence and can give the selection a run for their money. Joes Wink (trap 3) could have an influence on the outcome if avoiding the hotspots.

It's not difficult being overly bullish about the chances of UNANIMOUSPANTHER (trap 2), but he does smack of a 'good thing' in this line-up and could win as he pleases. There may be one or two obstacles in the way of Cluas Exile (trap 6), but he still looks dangerous. Satelite Monroe (trap 4) isn't guaranteed a run as drawn but has chance if enjoying one.

Opportunity knocks for DEADLY CHOICE (trap 5) in this contest and he can have already have built his superiority over these before heads are turned for home. Ballymac Briar (trap 3) would appear the biggest threat although he may need a bit of luck initially. Summerfield Air (trap 2) should account for a few of these but may find the principals too hot.
