19:20 Limerick — Frankie Dunworth Memorial Handicap Hurdle (Div I) model predictions

Navy Waves (IRE)

0%

Stayed on well up the hill when winning at Galway (22.5f, good to yielding) last September off 1lb lower; fair third at Tramore (2m5f) last month; fifth of 21 at Cork on latest (24.5f, good); could get involved.

Cozone (GB)

0%

Bounced back with a bang when easily winning at Downpatrick (2m6f, yielding to soft) off career-low mark on return in March; failed to back that up from 10lb higher at Down Royal but remains fairly treated on pick of old form.

Western Model (IRE)

0%

Punchestown hurdles winner in May 2024 off 90; record of 0-9 chasing for Paul Nolan in recent times but hit the frame on several occasions; off since November; first run for new yard; market can guide.

Embrace The Day (IRE)

0%

Promise when winning a point for Jonathan Fogarty; didn't show much in first five hurdle starts but best effort yet at Kilbeggan (19.5f, good to yielding) in first-time tongue-tie (retained) when fourth of 15; in the mix up in trip.

Barryroe Madam

0%

Record of 1-22 over hurdles, with the win coming in Listowel handicap in May last year (23.5f, good) off 85; lost form in final start for Brian McMahon and two poor efforts for this yard since; best watched.

Laska Du Breuil (FR)

0%

Modest form overall; ninth of 18 at Punchestown in December (2m1f, yielding) his best effort; pulled up before two out at Kilbeggan last month; new headgear combination.

The Sugarhill Lady (IRE)

0%

Largely struggled in handicaps until much more encouraging effort off reduced mark at Cork last month, staying on into fourth over 2m (yielding); similar effort when fourth at Clonmel a fortnight ago (19.5f, good to yielding); respected dropped 2lb for local yard.

Spellacy's Cross (IRE)

0%

Back-to-back handicap chase winner at Clonmel in October; unable to take advantage of lower hurdles mark in four recent runs but fair third of 18 at Punchestown (3m, good) on latest; big player again despite inability to win over timber to date a concern.

Thats All (IRE)

0%

Only one win from 21 starts over hurdles but was generally reliable last summer/autumn; 2m an inadequate test on return at Punchestown this month; better expected with the cobwebs blown away.

Lady Aquarelle (FR)

0%

Fell in two of three points; three maiden hurdle runs offered little; only minor promise when midfield on handicap debut at Clonmel (19.5f) a fortnight ago; needs to find improvement.

Barrowline (IRE)

0%

First sign of ability when hinting this sort of trip would suit when staying on for 28l fifth of 16 at Tramore last month; pulled up after mistake three out at Sligo (3m2f) on latest; this track could suit better.

Moonshine Girl (IRE)

0%

17-race maiden was a decent third over fences at Sligo in October; not a bad effort when two places behind Navy Waves on return at Cork; entitled to come on for that effort.

Sineads Fancy (IRE)

0%

Sole win came at Downpatrick (2m6f, good) nearly two years ago; third at Thurles over same trip last October her best run since; midfield at Clonmel on return.

John Dixen (IRE)

0%

Never a factor in four strong maiden hurdles at 2m-2m1f; could prove to be a different proposition now handicapping; cheekpieces; 3lb wrong; betting will provide clues.
