UK Horse Racing Tips: Clonmel

It would be no surprise if THE ELECTRICAL KID was good enough to make a winning start for Willie Mullins. The Malinas gelding was runner-up in a point-to-point back in November 2021 before being picked up for 95,000 pounds at the sales the following month. The horse that he chased home in that point was Inthepocket, a Grade 1 winner for Henry de Bromhead at Aintree in April. Croke Park was beaten favourite on his 'track' debut in a Kilbeggan bumper back in May. He may improve for going jumping now but needs to step up on that showing. Talk In The Park was beaten a fair way when second to Yeats Star at Downpatrick earlier in the month but could reach the frame again.
Prediction : 1st The Electrical Kid 2nd Croke Park 3rd Talk In The Park

MOUNT SINAI can make a winning start over jumps. The Mount Nelson mare has been placed on both her outings in bumpers and this looks like a nice starting point for her over timber. She is a half-sister to a decent sort in Seabank Bistro. Roccos Inspiration sets the standard off a mark of 108 and has plenty of solid placed form, including when third at Thurles a week ago. Lucky Viv has a similar profile and is rated just a pound lower by the handicapper.
Prediction : 1st Mount Sinai 2nd Roccos Inspiration 3rd Lucky Viv

BRIANNA LILY handled testing conditions well when scoring over course and distance late last month and may be able to repeat the dose. The Shirocco mare didn't make much impression on better going at Galway last time but back here and on softer ground she may prove the pick. Stablemate Castle Field Boy won a Tipperary maiden hurdle when last seen in April and has handled softer ground. He will be a leading player if stripping fit for his return. The Little Yank has been busy over fences lately and off a lower hurdles mark he could get involved in this small field.
Prediction : 1st Brianna Lily 2nd Castle Field Boy 3rd The Little Yank

Philip Rothwell is enjoying a fine season so far and NATURAL BREEZE may be able to give him another winner here. The Shirocco gelding has run well to be placed on his last two outings and went down fighting at Tramore a fortnight ago in similar ground. He stays a bit further than this but stamina will be important in this ground. Blue Reed ran much better when chasing home Conyers Hill in a maiden hurdle here last month and looks on a fair mark for his handicap debut. Dontdooddson has been knocking on the door and could be place material.
Prediction : 1st Natural Breeze 2nd Blue Reed 3rd Dontdooddson

An interesting little heat and LIMERICK LACE may be able to make a winning return. The Walk In The Park mare had a fine season as a novice last term, winning twice and finishing second in Grade 3 company at Naas. She is top rated in this, off a mark of 141, and may have a few more gears than rival Hurricane Georgie. Gordon Elliott's charge does come here race-fit though and ran a cracker when chasing home Minella Indo in Grade 3 company at Punchestown 15 days ago. Her best form is at further though. Heia disappointed on her most recent outing at Listowel, when it was reported that she was showing signs of coming into season. She is capable of better and getting weight off the top two she can't be discounted.
Prediction : 1st Limerick Lace 2nd Hurricane Georgie 3rd Heia

JENNY FLEX was probably value for a bit more than her winning margin at Downpatrick last time and may be able to strike again here. The well-bred Walk In The Park mare has taken a while to find her feet but was good last time, scooting clear between the last two fences and idling a bit late on to beat stablemate Zettabyte by a length-and-three-quarters. An initial handicap mark of 102 doesn't look harsh. Room To Roam also comes here in winning form, having scored by a wide margin at Sligo late last month. He got a 8lb hike for that victory but looks like the obvious danger. Slige Dala has run well to be placed on his last couple of outings and could reach the frame again.
Prediction : 1st Jenny Flex 2nd Room To Roam 3rd Slige Dala

CROI CORCRA takes a significant drop in trip here but may be worth siding with as she comes here in fine form after an impressive win at Tramore a fortnight ago. The Soldier Of Fortune mare settled things in good style then, recording a seven-length success, and around a more galloping track she may have the gears to operate at this trip. Womalko was a winner here when last seen in December of last year. He has to be respected despite returning from a lengthy enough absence. Carrolls Cottage was pulled up when last seen here in April but has slid to an attractive mark and is one to note on his return.
Prediction : 1st Croi Corcra 2nd Womalko 3rd Carrolls Cottage
