18:30 Tramore — Tramore Handicap Chase model predictions

Ballybrack Wood (IRE)

0%

Won a 2m4f beginners' chase here in 2024; lightly raced since and was tailed off here last month following a long stretch on the sidelines; hard to enthuse over after that and cheekpieces are now fitted.

Menas Miracle (IRE)

0%

Two good runs in beginners' chases last October and could be all the sharper for her recent run over hurdles; this mark shouldn't be beyond her.

Revolut Ned (IRE)

0%

Third in a hunter chase here last year and returns to rules action after winning a point two weeks ago; however, others have more pressing claims when this is his handicap debut.

Zolpharine (IRE)

0%

Hit with a 10lb rise for winning comfortably at Limerick (2m6f, good), which was a belated first win over fences; encouraging that he followed up over hurdles here last night, admittedly off a lower mark than today's; he's in the zone.

My Good Pal (IRE)

0%

In first-time cheekpieces when a clear second over 2m7f at Downpatrick 22 days ago and the winner was Dinoland who contests the previous race; this 7yo gets in off the same mark.

Mother Ship (IRE)

0%

Unable to win any of her 16 races over hurdles but did have some placed form and she's bred to make a chaser.

Patrick Street (GB)

0%

Dual-purpose gelding who won on the Flat last month; finished well for third over hurdles at Punchestown but over 2m and stamina could be an issue over this far on chase debut.

Cullenwaine (IRE)

0%

Poor strike-rate and both wins were in 2024; however, chased home previous-race contender Lake Chad here before a near miss at Limerick last week; solid chance.

Barely Made It (IRE)

0%

Well out of the weights last time so that's forgiven but was tailed off the run before; there's no substance to her chance.

The Border Boy (IRE)

0%

Only 1-21 over hurdles, the win coming on good ground at Wexford last summer (similar mark); did finish well held on chase debut in November and also in his subsequent run back hurdling.

Fr Gilligansvoyge (GB)

0%

Rules record of 1-69 is a glaring negative but this veteran did run well to be fourth at Limerick nine days ago, finishing behind Cullenwaine.
