Tralee Race 5

525 Yds (A3)

Prize Money: $643

STRIDEAWAY BUCKS (6) got the job done again after leading recording back to back wins, scoring at this track over 480m (29.16). Form from his last run is proving to be solid. Hard to go past. KILLAHAN COLIN (2) is an honest type in the frame at six of 10 starts including last time when third (29.44) over 480m at this track. Best form too dangerous to ignore. Have to include. SPRUCE RANGER (1) missed the frame last time out when sixth at Limerick from Box two (29.41) but draws same box here as latest win. The form from his last run is stacking up nicely. Should be about the money. RIVERFIELD BEST (3) is always a threat when he races at this journey.

In the money two back then disappointed when he finished last on June 14 over 480m at Limerick behind Robs Hero beaten 9 lengths (29.41) in an A4. Mixing his form but shapes as a genuine contender under these conditions.

In the money at this track at his last couple of starts, most recently finishing third over 480m. Won't find this any tougher. Right in this.

Winner two starts back at this track when scoring by a head in 29.20. Last start finished 4th in an A3 on June 10 over 480m at this track behind Strideaway Bucks beaten 5.5 lengths (29.54). May well be worth another chance.

Good effort to score last start by 2.5 lengths over 480m at this track in 29.19, beating Seven O Seven. Hard to entertain this time.
