Kilkenny Race 9

525 Yds (A3)

Prize Money: $866

PRICELESS JOSE (5) broke a string of placings finishing in the money two on end before a last start sixth (29.70) at this track. Has a good record here including two wins. Looks the one to beat on his best form. RATCHIES BORRIS (6) is a talented type and proved too strong last time to win by half a length at this track in a handy 29.13 beating VOLCANO VICKY. Can measure up again. VOLCANO VICKY (1) broke from a low draw and filled a minor placing last start, beaten only half a length (29.16) behind RATCHIES BORRIS at this track. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card last start despite being beaten. Expected to be in this for a long way. BROSTAIGH CULLEN (2) can finish much closer after missing a cheque at this track last start.

Notched up three wins on end in a row before finishing second (29.16) last time in an A4 over 480m at this track. Can turn things around.

Got back early in the race last start when fifth over 480m at this track. Before that won by one length at this track (29.47) beating Birchfield Pa in an A2 on January 23. Look for improvement. Not out of it.

Good win last start as odds-on favourite by half a length over 480m at this track in a handy 29.13, beating Volcano Vicky. Top chance to chalk-up the hat-trick.
