Shelbourne Race 2

525 Yds (Aa0)

Prize Money: $414

GOOD KATIE (2) has a strong record this track and trip with three wins and three placings from seven starts. In the money last time at Curraheen Park (28.57) in an AA0, finishing a 3 length third. Looks well placed and should feature. BOCKOS SAPPHIRE (3) is a super consistent dog who rarely misses the frame, last start scoring at this track (32.48), making it two straight wins. Form here sound including two wins. Has a good overall strike-rate and can find the frame here. THE OTHER MEL (4) resumed from a break finishing sixth (29.43) at this track in an AA0. Will strip fitter for the run. Solid formlines coming through her last run. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. BALLYMAC CMAX (1) has strong claims after a top-three finish last time out.

Racing consistently, including a win two back at this track, before a 2.5 lengths second (28.80) over 480m at this track last time. Although beaten last time still ran one of the quickest times on the card. Stick with her.

Handy type with a solid strike-rate. Winner two back then well fancied last time and could manage only third over 480m at Curraheen Park in 28.57. Has won two races from this box. Expected to feature.

Won over 549m at this track (32.48) at the last run before a spell five-and-a-half months ago. Looks a definite winning chance.

Missed the placings at the final run of her last campaign, finishing sixth over 480m at this track on May 16. Has a win and a minor from three runs when first-up. Looks a strong top-three chance.

Missed the placings three back but unbeaten in two runs since, the latest claiming an A4 in 28.49 over 480m at this track. Can sneak into the finish with a repeat of last run.
