Waterford Race 12

525 Yds (A5)

Prize Money: $528

ALMIGHTY TARA (1) finds it hard to win. Finished in the money last time though when second (29.52) at this track. Top prospect. KEPLAR SUZIE (2) comes off an average run last start when sixth at this track over 480m behind Nans Ziggy (30.20) in an A4. Worth following up. CRACK ON SADIE (3) was strongly supported last start but missed the frame when fifth (42.55), beaten 18 lengths. Expected to run well. FORGE TARA (4) should be thereabouts despite an unplaced run here most recently.

Unplaced two runs back then made impressive progress last time to finish second over 480m at this track. Better last time but not convinced this is her race.

Could only manage sixth last time out over 480m at this track, a continuation of some ordinary form. Not up to this.

Winner two starts back at this track when scoring by half a length in 29.69. Last start finished 5th over 480m at this track beaten 10 lengths (29.92) behind Nans Sparrow in an A5 on June 4. This looks too tough.
