Waterford Race 11

Prize Money: $533

SURPRISE (1) has been hard to follow lately, running fifth (29.86) last time but prior to that ran very well when placed at this track. Will find this more suitable and can atone. FORGE RUBY (2) jumps from trap 2 again after scoring (30.07) last time at this track over 480m. Leading player again. BISTO MISTY (4) finds it hard to win but looks close to breaking through. Has been in the minors the last two runs, the latest finishing second (29.99) at this track. Nicely placed to grab a well-deserved win. BAY CRUISER (6) collected a minor prize last start and must be considered.

Comments

In the money two back then disappointed when she finished 5th in an A6 on August 1 over 480m at this track behind Dungill Lola beaten 5.5 lengths (29.86). Capable of a strong show.

Good win last start as odds-on favourite by one length over 480m at this track in a handy 30.07, beating St Moling Lad. Had been in fine form, hitting the frame three times on end, before a deserved win last time. Can measure up again.
