Youghal Race 2

525 Yds (A7)

Prize Money: $533

BAND OF VELVET (2) filled a minor placing last start at this track behind Witches Suez (30.11) in an A7. Chased the leaders and with a clean run can be prominent. Has performed well from this box with a win and six minor placings to her name from 13 starts. Top chance in this line up. WHITTY ISLAND (1) has recorded back to back wins, last time scoring at this track over 480m by a head (30.01). Hard to fault his recent form and can win again. SWIFT BIZERK (3) broke from a low draw and filled a minor placing last start, beaten only 1.5 lengths (30.14) behind Witches Suez at this track. Boasts two wins from three starts out of this box. Racing well and deserves a win. FAROUT DUKE (5) should bounce back after an unplaced effort here recently.

Produced a much better performance last start when second over 480m at this track in an A7. Worked home well on that occasion and should be closing well again. Found one better last time. Well placed and worth following up.

Racing well of late. In the money two starts back at this track then finished third at her latest appearance in an A7 at this track over 480m (29.94). In good form but this is tougher.
