Limerick Race 5

525 Yds (A5)

Prize Money: $552

MELLON SOPHIE (2) had won two starts on end leading into the last outing when strongly fancied but could only manage fourth (29.77) at this track. Has claims if she runs up to expectations. SNUGGIE JASPER (5) was among the minors three back at this track then missed the frame the last two, but drawn box 5 this time where he has three wins. Can feature with the right run. SHANAKYLE VALLEY (3) comes off an average run last start when sixth at this track over 480m behind Petes Noah (30.31) in an A5. Great chance to atone. KRANKY NATHAN (6) is not to be discarded.

Comments

Finished fifth two starts ago then regained form last time out when she found a couple better over 480m in an A3 at this track. May find this a bit too tough.

Had won two on end but missed the hat-trick last start when fourth and beaten 4 lengths (29.77) in an A5 over 480m at this track. Prepared to give her another chance.

Last start finished last in an A5 on January 30 over 480m at this track behind Petes Noah beaten 7 lengths (30.31). Mixing his form but shapes as a genuine contender under these conditions.
