Race 11

Prize Money: $648

KNOCKBOY CURRAGH (2) was the fastest winner on the program last time out, running away to score by one length (15.25) at this track. Can continue the winning form. LOTTO DREAM (5) is an accomplished sprinter with a great record at the short dashes. Kept coming to fill the minor placings over 262m at this track (15.34) in a D1. Strike rate this distance strong having won five of seven tries. Boasts a strong record from this draw with three wins and two minor placings from seven starts. Expected to be in the finish again. BALLYMAC ZEELA (1) was out of placings last time (15.65) at this track in a D1, finishing fourth and beaten 5 lengths. Makes strong appeal on best. VANESSAS MELODY (3) must be respected despite an unplaced effort here most recently.

Recent form has been ordinary, but she has decent stats at this track and distance. Has run blistering time here with a 15.48 PB at the distance. Must include if she recaptures that form.

Sound effort to finish third last start over 262m at this track (15.34) in a D1. Yet to miss the placings at this track, including five wins. Likely to be in the finish.
