Prize Money: $841

CLONCUNNY BLACK (6) comes here following a placing in swift time (15.88) over 261m at this track. In form and rates on top this time. MILLHILL GRACE (5) goes very well at the distance with two wins and a placing from four starts. In the money last time at this track (15.81) in a D1, finishing a 0.8 lengths second. Suited here and expected to run well. BALLYROE BLUE (3) is worth forgiving last start after finishing sixth (28.68) in an A2 at this track over 450m. The form out of his last race has been franked. One of the main contenders. ESSEX JEWEL (2) should be thereabouts despite an unplaced run here most recently.

Didn't fire two runs back then progressed nicely last time to be beaten just 0.8 lengths into second over 261m at this track. The recent effort suggests she is ready to win.
