Shelbourne Race 6

525 Yds (Aa0)

Prize Money: $447

SLINGSHOT POPPY (5) could not have been more impressive last start in her dazzling 26.73 win at Sunderland over 450m. Hot win latest and looks the one to beat again. BALLYMAC LAKE (1) is better than last start when fifth (29.10) in an AA0 at this track over 480m. The form from his last run is stacking up nicely. Expected to give a good account. KLASSY SHOE (4) was prominent throughout when winning two back but could manage only midfield last time when 4th and beaten 3.5 lengths at this track (29.16). Form from his last run is proving to be solid. Has ability and a bold showing is expected. COLOURSAREGREEN (3) can finish much closer after missing a cheque at this track last start.
