This is the strongest field of the night so far, headed by dogs with genuine A1 and A0 form in their recent past. Trap 2 (15.2%) and trap 1 (15.0%) share favouritism as the best boxes at Clonmel's A2 level, with trap 5 a clear graveyard at just 7.8% from 648 runs. The composite model is a reliable guide at this grade, with the top-rated dog winning 22.2% of races — one of the stronger signals on the card. Minor Mac tops the model and sits in a productive trap, arriving in good order after a close second at A3 level last time. But Vivaro Ceyian rates far higher than anyone else on raw ability, with a career-best figure of 100 in her locker and a dominant win at this exact grade two starts back — the trouble is she's drawn in the one box that has produced almost no winners at this level.
Tops the model rating tonight and sits in trap 1, one of the two best boxes at this level, winning 15.0% from 648 runs. He was narrowly touched off in second at A3 grade last time out, and further back has a big career peak of 94 — he's also raced at the much tougher A1 level in the past, so tonight's grade should be comfortably within range. A strong, rounded case all round.
On raw ability, she's the best dog in this race by some distance — her average performance rating is well clear of the rest of the field and she boasts a career-best figure of 100, along with a dominant win at this exact A2 grade two starts back. The single problem is the draw: trap 5 has produced almost no winners at this level, taking just 7.8% from 648 runs, by far the weakest box on offer. If she can overcome that, she has the class to beat this field with something to spare.
Drops down from A1 grade, where she was competitive without landing a race, and she's remarkably consistent — her last six starts read 73, 79, 73, 90, 70 and 74, rarely straying from a high level. Trainer Kevin McLean has a healthy strike rate of just over one in five. Trap 2 is the best draw at this level, winning 15.2% from 648 runs, and this looks a strong, well-rounded contender.
Her underlying figures are strong — a career peak of 92 when winning at this exact grade — but that run came back in February, and there's no evidence of a run since then in the data provided. A layoff of that length brings a real fitness question mark that the figures alone can't answer. Best watched rather than backed until she shows she's back to full speed.
Won impressively last time out at A3 grade and now steps up to face this tougher company, having previously proven himself at A1 level too. The rest of his recent form is more workmanlike, in the 60s and low 70s, so last time's peak may be the exception rather than the rule. Trap 4 is a moderate draw here at 13.0%. Others have stronger recent claims.
Lightly raced but clearly has ability — she won readily last time out at A3 grade, moving up to face tougher opposition tonight. Her small sample of form is volatile at 89, 59, 42 and 67, so she's more boom-or-bust than a confident selection, but trainer Aaron O'Hanlon has a strong strike rate of better than three in ten from a small sample. Trap 6 is a fair draw at 13.5%.
Key insight: The composite model is one of the more reliable signals on the card at this level (22.2% for the top-rated dog), but the highest-rated dog on raw ability, Vivaro Ceyian, rates far below on the composite purely because of a poor trap fit — she's drawn in trap 5, which has won just 7.8% of races at this grade.
