Shelbourne Race 8

525 Yds (A1)

Prize Money: $209

SWITHINS JIM (2) is worth forgiving last start after finishing fourth (33.46) in an A1 at this track over 549m. One of the main contenders. AAYAMZA SONNY (3) scored by 1.5 lengths last time (28.71) in an A1 over 480m at this track. Already a winner from this trap. LENNIES MADGE (6) produced a respectable 28.78 despite finishing fourth over 480m at Tralee last start. Harder here but expected to measure up. HIGHVIEW DANIEL (1) was strongly fancied last time on the back of some good form but finished third (28.83) at this track. Goes well out of this box with a win and three minor placings. Makes plenty of appeal.

Racked up four wins on the trot before finishing fourth (33.46) in an A1 over 549m at this track last time. Deserves another chance.

Finished fourth two starts ago then regained form last time out when she found one better over 480m in an A1 at this track. Heading in the right direction and well placed to fill another top-three spot.
