Shelbourne Race 9

525 Yds (AA0)

Prize Money: $410

DEERJET MATILDA (3) recorded three placings in a row before an overdue win last time, scoring by half a length (28.85) at Thurles. Ran one of the fastest times on the program in her latest win. Will go close again if runs up to latest. HIGHVIEW CAROL (6) continues to race well and still yet to miss the placings, filling the minors at all three starts since last win, the latest at this track in 28.52. Performs well off this trap. Has a good overall strike-rate and can find the frame here. KILLOUGH BIRD (5) missed the frame last time but just three runs back was a strong A3 winner (29.23) at Kilkenny over 480m. Rates a winning chance on best. BALLYMAC NINJAGO (4) can sneak into the finish.

Unplaced two runs back then made impressive progress last time to be beaten just 2 lengths into third over 480m at this track. Faces a tough assignment this time.
