Shelbourne Race 5

550 Yds (Aa0)

Prize Money: $328

BALLYMAC DENIRO (6) recorded a 7 length win (29.42) in an AA0 last time at this track. Has already won two times from this trap. Looks a key chance on best form. NEWINN SPOT (4) is an honest type in the frame at six of 15 starts including last time when second (29.82) over 503m at this track. Will go close here with a clear run. GROUCHOS FRANK (3) had the drop on the lead early on but could only manage third, beaten 1.5 lengths (29.65) at this track in an AA0 over 503m. Consistent performer from this draw with a win and two minor placings to his credit. Hard to beat again. DEAR SIR (5) racing over this distance brings the best out in him.

Comments

Didn't fire two runs back then progressed nicely last time to be beaten just one length into second over 503m at this track. Better last time but not convinced this is his race.

Solid effort after taking an early lead to score in an AA0 by 1.0 len at this track over 503m (29.55). Needs to find a bit more.

Unplaced two runs back then made impressive progress last time to be beaten just 1.5 lengths into third over 503m at this track. Heading in the right direction and well placed to fill another top-three spot.

Turned in a better effort over 503m at this track last start, finishing second behind Oriental King in an AA0. Has the early speed to land on the pace and can stick on. Well-performed from this draw. Key chance on best form.

Regained form last time out at the second run back from a break when he found one better over 503m in an AA0 at this track. The recent effort suggests he is a genuine hope.
