5.30 Tramore – Irish Stallion Farms EBF Mares INH Flat Race (2m 140y, Good)

·

A race confined to EBF-eligible mares who are yet to win under rules. Most of these are lightly raced or debuting, with a mix of moderate previous form and some potential improvers. Bumpers at Tramore often favour race-fit types or those from top yards, especially those ridden prominently.


Key Contenders:

LA CONFINER (W.P. Mullins / P.W. Mullins)

  • Trainer/Jockey combo speaks volumes – no introduction needed.
  • Debutante but cost €34,000 and by leading NH sire No Risk At All (3.09 AEI).
  • Likely to be very well-prepared and attract market attention.
  • Hard to oppose on pedigree, connections, and debut setting.

RUN FOR MAHLER (C. Byrnes / A. O’Sullivan)

  • Best proven form in the field – second in a Galway bumper last time, finishing ahead of subsequent runner Something Fabulous.
  • Half-sister to classy dual-purpose type Run For Oscar.
  • Likely to improve again; sets a good standard.

SHING SHANG LILY (C. Collins / J. Williamson)

  • Made encouraging late gains on debut in a maiden hurdle.
  • Sired by Yeats, suggesting stamina and progress with age.
  • Could step forward now in a more suitable bumper contest; interesting at a price.

SING MY STORY (Gallagher / B. Aherne)

  • Exposed type with multiple midfield finishes in similar races.
  • Bit below best last time but has reliable profile against weak fields.
  • Should run her race but vulnerable to anything with upside.

Others Worth Mentioning:

  • SOMETHING FABULOUS – behind Run For Mahler last time, lightly raced, not without ability but improvement needed.
  • CHASING CROWNS – showed improvement last time but still a fair bit below standard required.
  • MISS JM REIDY – minor place effort on bumper debut but beaten a long way on hurdles debut.
  • MAYBE SOMEDAY, HUNTERS GIRL, GOFORTHESPIN – all longshots, minimal or no form, hard to recommend.

Betting & Play Strategy:

  • Win: La Confiner – Mullins’ bumper debutants are usually ready; stable form excellent (70% RTF). Anything near evens is fair.
  • Each-Way/Place Saver: Run For Mahler – Race fit and sets the form standard. Can give the favourite a scare.
  • Longshot Place Play: Shing Shang Lily – quietly ran on last time, could place at a big price in weak company.

Tissue Odds (Private Estimate):

  • La Confiner – 6/5
  • Run For Mahler – 3/1
  • Shing Shang Lily – 8/1
  • Something Fabulous – 10/1
  • Sing My Story – 14/1
  • Others – 20/1+
