Monmore Race 8

Shirley Harris 80th Birthday Race

Prize Money: $749

YANKEE TIPP (3) turned in a solid run last start over 264m at Monmore finishing 4th and beaten only 1.1 lengths (16.01). Worth another chance. LONGRANGE COMET (2) used the inside draw to advantage to get the prize last time at Monmore over 264m (16.01), scoring by a neck. Rates a leading chance again. CONFIDENT RUBY (1) made it two minor placings on the trot when beaten third (29.45) in an A8 at Monmore last time out. Expected to do much better this time. DARVER SPARK (4) hit the frame with a third two runs back then claimed an A9 by a head at Monmore over 480m (29.69) last time. Up a notch here but latest effort enough to test this field.

Below best last start when she finished 4th on June 8 over 480m at Monmore behind Starmount Flash beaten 1.4 lengths (29.80) in an A8. This looks too tough.
