Fairyhouse 6:57 Result

Clonmacash carries top weight on merit with the highest OR (75) in the field, and his recent form 543751 shows he's progressive and just won last time out. He's fit, in-form, and the visor should help keep him sharp over 6f. Adrian McGuinness has multiple runners here suggesting stable confidence, and Clonmacash is his stronger of the entries on ratings. Bad Boy Rizz (OR 74) is the market rival but his recent run of -23548 is patchier and less consistent, with a big weight to carry as a colt. Sovereign Cry is dropping in class relative to his mark but hasn't shown much recently (184998 tailing off). In a big 18-runner sprint handicap, having the highest rating and most recent solid form (a win two runs back, then consistent minor placings) gives Clonmacash the best combination of proven ability at trip and current form. Draw 5 is workable in a race this size. He looks the most solid, weight-adjusted standout in a messy, wide-open contest.
