10/1, respectable eighth of 18 in handicap at the Curragh (10f, good), never nearer. Off 8 months and she's worth a second look, particularly if strong in the betting.

Respectable fourth of 17 in handicap (5/1) at Gowran (9.4f, soft) 9 days ago, not ideally placed. Each-way claims with the return to this shorter trip holding no fears.

Winner at Gowran (8.3f, heavy) in October who shaped as if better for the run after 5 months off when eleventh of 17 in handicap at Leopardstown (1m, good) 26 days ago, having to weave through. Cheekpieces back on and better showing anticipated.

Took advantage of reduced mark when successful at Killarney in October and solid return from 5 months off when third of 18 in handicap at the Curragh (8f, soft, 17/2) 40 days ago. One to consider.

Modest handicapper (stays 1¼m) who shed maiden tag at Hamilton (9f) in August. Efforts mixed thereafter, unable to get to the front when sixth of 9 in handicap at Chelmsford City (1m). Returns having changed hands cheaply and others rate stronger.

15:27 Limerick - 25 April 2025 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

MARTINELLI made a good return from 5 months off when third in a big-field Curragh handicap (1m) 6 weeks ago and, entitled to strip fitter for that, he looks a likely player from this mark. Secret Magician and Everylittlestep are others to consider. Counterculture completes the shortlist.
