Waterford Race 9

525 Yds (A4)

Prize Money: $469

ROCKMOUNT BIRMAN (2) racing well without winning, placing at his last four runs. Last time finished 3rd over 480m at this track beaten 1.5 lengths (29.35) behind Graces Boy in an A4 on January 16. Top prospect. SURPRISE (1) box seated before sticking on well to finish 4 lengths away in second (29.50) at this track in an A4 over 480m. Can feature again. CHUCKLEHEAD (6) has mixed form a little and missed the frame the last two but was an A6 winner three back (29.40) at this track over 480m. Can improve sharply here. SLANEYSIDE NICK (3) is not to be discarded.

Unplaced two runs back then made impressive progress last time to finish second over 480m at this track. Racing well enough to fully test this field.

Last start finished last on January 16 over 480m at this track behind Graces Boy beaten 7 lengths (29.74) in an A4. Mixing his form but shapes as a genuine chance under these conditions.
