Kilkenny Race 12

525 Yds (A5)

Prize Money: $539

KILKENNY SAM (5) is a fast beginner who has shown good improvement at his last two starts, breaking through last time at this track over 480m. Winner at his latest appearance in one of the quickest times on the card. Has hit winning form and can measure up again. RAYS JET (1) is progressing well and looks close to another win after hitting the frame last run (29.66) at this track. Form here at the trip sound including eight wins. Must be included in calculations. CHARLIES CHOICE (6) turned in a better run last time to find a minor placing (29.51) at this track behind Kilgraneydeking in an A4. Has the early speed to land on the pace and can stick on. Goes well out of this box with a win and five minor placings. Expected to feature again. BALLYDAN TEN (2) was strongly fancied last time on the back of a win two back but could only manage second (29.77) at this track. Has performed well from this box with a win and five minor placings to his name from eight starts.

Showed little last start over 480m at this track when beaten 13 len (30.20) behind Comer Shark on March 4. Not keen, needs to lift.

Solid effort after taking an early lead to score in an A6 by 1.5 len at this track over 480m (29.52). Can make it two on the bounce.

Finished fifth two starts ago then regained form last time out when he found a couple better over 480m in an A4 at this track. The recent effort suggests he is a genuine hope.
