Shelbourne Race 1

575 Yds (A1)

Prize Money: $1,339

DOWN TOTHE WIRE (3) has been hard to follow lately, running fourth (28.87) last time but prior to that ran very well when placed at this track. Key player on best and expected to bounce back. TORPEDO TURTLE (5) comes here off a placing in speedy time (28.90) over 480m at Tralee. Has the ability and can measure up. ZIPPY MAJOR (4) turned in a modest effort most recently when fifth at this track over 480m behind Wi Can James (28.61) in an A0. Placed at his previous run. Has never been out of the placings from two starts out of this box. Better than last start and can bounce back. GASTON (2) placed two runs ago then again in the money last time when second (29.85) at this track in an A0.

Comments

Unplaced two runs back then made impressive progress last time to finish third over 480m at Clonmel. May find this a bit too tough.

Racing well of late. In the money two starts back at Waterford then finished runner-up at his latest appearance in an A0 at this track over 503m (29.85). Decent recent form so demands respect.

In the money two back then disappointed when he finished 4th over 480m at this track beaten 6 lengths (28.87) behind Newinn Spot in an A0 on May 30. Has a sharp 28.53 PB at this course and distance. Hard to beat.

Finished fourth two starts ago then regained form last time out when he found one better over 480m in an A1 at Tralee. Can take this out on the back of that sound recent effort.
