Shelbourne Race 7

550 Yds (Aa0)

Prize Money: $656

DROOPYS MONK (2) boasts a strong record this journey here with two wins and three minors from six tries. Hit the frame latest (29.84) when third at this track in an AA0. Looks suited and should go close. BRAYVIEW LAD (1) is better than last start when fourth (30.19) in an AA0 at this track over 503m. Key runner who gets his chance to atone. WAITINGFORASTAR (4) lines up chasing another win after getting around the 503m at this track in a slick 29.50 two back then following up with a 29.53 win at this track over 503m last time. In form and must include in calculations. FAYPOINT HARVEY (3) cannot be overlooked following a recent top-three finish.

Handy type with a solid strike-rate. Winner two back then well fancied last time and could manage only fourth over 503m at this track in 30.19. Looks a strong winning hope.
