5.30 Limerick (11 runners)
SP Or Better Guaranteed With Tote Claiming Race
1m3½f 

Based on the Timewise ratings, the following are the top five contenders for the 5.30 race at Limerick, with detailed analysis and assessment:

  1. Bringsty: With the highest total rating of 350.0, Bringsty stands out as the frontrunner. In his last race, he finished second in a field of 12 at Tipperary. Given his recent performance and the significant increase in distance for this race, Bringsty seems to be well placed to compete effectively.
  2. Magnetic North (IRE): Ranking second with a total of 282.9, Magnetic North is a worthy competitor. He won his last race at Leopardstown in May but was slightly below form at Roscommon 23 days ago. Nonetheless, he still stands as a strong contender and makes the shortlist for this race.
  3. Hurricane Helen: Securing the third position with a total of 246.2, Hurricane Helen’s recent performance at Listowel, finishing seventh of 15, is encouraging. Even though she is stepping up significantly in distance, given her previous performances, she could pose a strong challenge.
  4. Carlton Gardens: Fourth on the list with a total of 234.9, Carlton Gardens is an intriguing choice. His recent tenth-place finish in a handicap hurdle at Punchestown suggests he might not be in top form, however, being pitched into a claiming company on returning to the level could be advantageous for him.
  5. Sandyman: Rounding off the top five with a total of 230.7, Sandyman managed a sixth-place finish in his last race at Navan. If he can build on that performance, Sandyman could potentially challenge the top contenders.

The comments on these horses suggest that both Bringsty and Magnetic North (IRE) have an exceptional chance of winning, based on their recent performances and respective abilities to handle the distance of this race.

While the remaining horses in the race have lower total ratings, it is worth mentioning that Danza Della Luna, with a total of 224.3, could be sharper with her last race under her belt and may benefit from the drop in grade. Additionally, Carlton Gardens could be interesting given the quick move to pitch him into a claiming company returned to the level. The market’s perception of him could be enlightening.

Remember, in horse racing, while ratings provide a guide, actual race conditions and horse form on the day also play a significant role in determining the outcome.

Tote Fantasy Whos In Your Stable Handicap (47-70)
1m3½f

Based on the Timewise ratings, here’s an analysis of the top contenders in the 6.00 Limerick horse race:

  1. Youcrackmeup (Total Rating: 347.0)
    The horse holds the highest Timewise total rating and has recently shown excellent form, coming off a win in a handicap at Roscommon, where it dug deep to clinch the victory. With a career-best performance and more to come, Youcrackmeup is a horse with serious potential.
  2. Alazne (IRE) (Total Rating: 297.9)
    Although it’s a lightly-raced maiden, Alazne has demonstrated credible performance in its recent race at Leopardstown, coming in 8th out of 13. The yard’s good spell may also play a beneficial role for Alazne.
  3. Duke Of Vienna (USA) (Total Rating: 275.6)
    Despite being a thrice-raced maiden and having a disappointing run at the Curragh recently, Duke Of Vienna is set to make its handicap debut with cheekpieces for the first time. This, coupled with its decent Timewise rating, could signal a turnaround.
  4. Pinot Gris (IRE) (Total Rating: 275.5)
    Pinot Gris has shown excellent form, finishing fourth in a recent handicap at Roscommon. Its new cheekpieces could provide a performance enhancement, keeping it in the mix as a strong contender.
  5. Ifitwasme (IRE) (Total Rating: 253.9)
    Another lightly-raced maiden, Ifitwasme managed a good third position in a handicap at Listowel. It’s due for a significant increase in trip, which might just be what’s needed to tip the scales in its favour.

Among the top five horses based on Timewise total ratings, Youcrackmeup and Pinot Gris (IRE) seem to have an exceptional chance, given their recent performances and promising commentary.

Looking beyond the top five, one horse that catches the eye is Grey Fable (IRE) (Total Rating: 239.5). Despite its sixth-place standing in the Timewise ratings, it recently performed well in a handicap at Roscommon, securing a very good second place. Given this, it could pose a threat to the higher rated contenders.

Lastly, Hialeah (IRE) (Total Rating: 231.4) is worth mentioning. The horse put up a good show at Gowran recently, finishing second in a handicap race. With a step up in trip, Hialeah could be a dark horse in this race.

In conclusion, the 6.00 Limerick race promises to be an exciting event with multiple potential winners. While Youcrackmeup seems to be the favourite based on ratings and recent form, don’t count out competitors like Pinot Gris, Grey Fable, or Hialeah.

6.30 Limerick (14 runners)
Irish EBF Median Sires Series Fillies Maiden
7f 

Based on the Timewise total ratings provided, here is a comprehensive analysis of the upcoming horse race:

  1. Pretence (IRE): With the highest total rating of 248.2, this horse leads the field. Having raced twice, she moves significantly up in trip which could potentially enhance her performance. Though she finished 14th in her last outing, she could potentially bounce back given her high rating.
  2. Spicy Water (IRE): Coming in second with a total rating of 234.4, Spicy Water is an interesting contender. Having only raced once before, she didn’t have a great debut but could show some improvement in her second outing.

After these two leading contenders, there is a significant gap in ratings to the following horses.

  1. St Teresa Avila: This horse has a total rating of 103.6, a steep fall from the top two contenders. As an untested runner, it’s hard to predict her performance but her pedigree is noteworthy.
  2. Relentless Flyer (IRE): With a total rating of 94.4, Relentless Flyer comes fourth in our list. As a debutante, the pedigree of this horse is fascinating with several winning relations, making her an interesting prospect.
  3. Ennereilly (IRE): With a total rating of 91.6, Ennereilly comes fifth. As another debutante, her pedigree is impressive, and she comes from a trainer known for successful newcomers which could be a positive factor in her performance.

In terms of noteworthy horses beyond the total ratings, Sun Never Sets (USA) and Tatum (IRE) are of particular interest. Despite their lower ratings, they come from stables having a good spell which could influence their performance. Sun Never Sets (USA) has a strong pedigree and merits serious consideration. Tatum (IRE) also comes from a strong pedigree and should be considered.

In conclusion, while Pretence (IRE) and Spicy Water (IRE) lead in total ratings, the field is full of new and potentially strong contenders. It’s also crucial to keep an eye on Sun Never Sets (USA) and Tatum (IRE), as their stables are having a good spell and they have strong pedigrees that could mean they outperform their current ratings. The race is likely to be competitive and unpredictable due to the number of debutantes and untested horses.

“Cnodian (IRE)” tops the Timewise ratings and is a previous course and distance (C&D) winner. Although it’s been a while since its last win, the horse showed promise in its most recent race, finishing with running left. This could be a good sign for the race today.

“Cherry Bloom (IRE)” is second in the ratings and comes into this race on the back of a recent win. Even with a 6lb rise, this horse should remain competitive and be considered as a strong contender.

“One For Mum (IRE)” is third in the ratings and put in a good performance in its last race, finishing third. It is certainly one to be considered based on recent form.

Of the top contenders, “Cnodian (IRE)” and “Cherry Bloom (IRE)” appear to have exceptional chances based on the comments provided. Cnodian (IRE)’s solid recent form and C&D win, alongside Cherry Bloom (IRE)’s recent win suggest they are in good form coming into this race.

Beyond the ratings, “Linger For Longer (IRE)” has positive comments despite its lower rating. This horse finished second in its last race and the comment suggests it can give a good account of itself. Although not as highly rated, it could be an outsider to consider.

The 7.30 Limerick horse race, the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Maiden, has a field of 16 runners to analyse. This is based on the Timewise ratings provided, and will take into account the total ratings order, as well as pertinent details from the horse comments, excluding any consideration of odds.

  1. Lan Cinnte (IRE) – Total Rating: 336.6. Lan Cinnte appears to be a strong contender for the race, ranking the highest in terms of the total ratings. The filly is lightly-raced but showed promise in her recent outing at Naas after an 8-month hiatus, finishing as the second of 16. As such, she’s expected to build on that performance, and thus holds solid claims for a strong finish in this race.
  2. Livio Milo (IRE) – Total Rating: 303.2. Coming in second in the ratings, Livio Milo has also shown signs of improvement recently. He placed second in a race at Listowel 10 days ago, with cheekpieces back on. This performance, combined with his high total rating, makes him a likely competitor in the race.
  3. Dutch Gold (IRE) – Total Rating: 286.5. Dutch Gold, though slightly below form recently, is still third in terms of total ratings. His yard is having a good spell and he has the potential to be competitive in this race.
  4. City Exile – Total Rating: 284.3. City Exile, a lightly-raced gelding, is worth noting. His recent good performance in Tipperary combined with a new addition of blinkers positions him as a likely contender. His total rating supports this.
  5. Rival Queen (IRE) – Total Rating: 276.4. Although Rival Queen’s odds are not specified, she is in fifth place in terms of total ratings. The filly has only raced once, and showed promise at Naas. Given the stable’s good form, she is likely to improve.

While these are the top five based on total ratings, the comments also suggest a few others worth mentioning:

  • Executive Summary (IRE): Though lower in ratings, this debutant’s market is advised to check due to his pedigree, with several half-siblings being winners.
  • Treasured Soul (IRE): Despite a recent underperformance, the comments suggest that if he can return to his debut form, he could be competitive.

In conclusion, the top contender, based on the Timewise ratings and the comments, appears to be Lan Cinnte. This filly has shown potential and is expected to improve on her recent performance. She is one to watch in the upcoming 7.30 Limerick race.

Based on the provided Timewise ratings, we can analyse and rank the horses in this race from highest to lowest:

  1. Cordouan (FR) – Total Rating: 404.2
  2. Eclat De Lumiere (IRE) – Total Rating: 349.7
  3. Spanish Tenor (IRE) – Total Rating: 333.8
  4. Relevant Range (IRE) – Total Rating: 331.1
  5. Navagio (IRE) – Total Rating: 330.2
  6. Morning Soldier (IRE) – Total Rating: 303.9
  7. Exquisite Acclaim (IRE) – Total Rating: 294.3
  8. Play It Again Zaam (IRE) – Total Rating: 284.2
  9. Crystal Black (IRE) – Total Rating: 273.2
  10. Dragon Of Malta (IRE) – Total Rating: 264.8

Now let’s dive deeper into the top contenders:

  1. Cordouan (FR) – Cordouan tops the ratings and as such commands our attention. The horse showed a respectable performance in his last race, finishing third at Dundalk. His form could be even more potent, considering that he had to navigate his way through the pack in that race. Having rested for seven months, he should be fresh and ready to go. With a very impressive total rating, Cordouan is certainly one to watch in this race.
  2. Eclat De Lumiere (IRE) – Eclat De Lumiere ranks second in the total ratings. This horse put up a creditable performance 13 days ago at Fairyhouse, finishing third despite being blinkered for the first time. The horse’s stable is in good form, and considering this, he merits consideration.
  3. Spanish Tenor (IRE) – The third horse in our ratings, Spanish Tenor, has been performing well lately. He came in second in his last race at Gowran. Though he hasn’t won in his last thirteen runs, his recent good form and previous success on this course and distance suggest he cannot be overlooked.
  4. Relevant Range (IRE) – While Relevant Range comes in fourth in the ratings, he has had a disappointing last run, finishing fourteenth at the Curragh. Despite a win at Dundalk in March, his recent form does not instil confidence.
  5. Navagio (IRE) – Lastly, Navagio, despite ranking fifth in our ratings, puts forth a compelling case for consideration. He finished a good second at Naas 24 days ago, and with first-time cheekpieces, his chances may be enhanced.

To summarise, the top-ranked horse, Cordouan (FR), appears to have an exceptional chance based on the comments and his top ranking in the ratings. Eclat De Lumiere (IRE) and Spanish Tenor (IRE) should also be considered as strong contenders. However, despite not being in the top ratings, the potential of Navagio (IRE) should not be dismissed, as the addition of cheekpieces for the first time might be a beneficial factor.

Based on the Total ratings provided, here’s a detailed analysis of the forthcoming race at Limerick:

The top five contenders in terms of Total ratings are:

  1. Miss Abby Jools (IRE) – 388.9
  2. Breezy Zoff (IRE) – 283.1
  3. Monzoon – 282.0
  4. Kodiac Prince (IRE) – 280.3
  5. Phoenix Open (USA) – 253.5

Miss Abby Jools (IRE), with the highest Total score of 388.9, stands as a strong contender. Despite being a bit below form at Leopardstown, the horse has a latest win at Dundalk in March, suggesting that it can perform well.

Breezy Zoff (IRE), second on the list, has a Total of 283.1. While it gave a creditable performance at Listowel 10 days ago, it did not finish in the top half of the pack.

Monzoon ranks third with a Total of 282.0. It’s worth noting that while it was a respectable tenth at the Curragh 19 days ago, it has been twelve runs since its last win in 2021.

Kodiac Prince (IRE) has a Total of 280.3. Despite having twelve runs since its last win in 2022, this horse put up a good performance, finishing second in a race at Killarney 29 days ago. The comments suggest this horse has leading claims, making it a top runner to watch out for.

Phoenix Open (USA), a course and distance (C&D) winner, holds a Total score of 253.5. However, its recent performance has not been strong, placing twelfth out of 14 in a handicap at Listowel.

When considering horses outside the top five in the Total ratings but with positive comments, Bobby K (IRE) deserves attention. It ended up a respectable sixth at Dundalk, and it is suggested that it has claims if fully tuned up after a break of 147 days.

In summary, based on Total ratings and taking the comments into consideration, Miss Abby Jools (IRE) and Kodiac Prince (IRE) appear to be strong contenders, both having recent wins or good placements in their record. However, horses such as Bobby K (IRE) cannot be disregarded, despite lower Total ratings, as comments indicate potential. Please remember this analysis is only based on available data and does not guarantee outcomes, as horse racing also involves a degree of unpredictability.
