Kilkenny Race 7

525 Yds (A0)

Prize Money: $1,279

DA BOULD JOHNJOE (3) is worth forgiving last start after finishing fourth (29.19) at this track over 480m. Form here at the trip sound including nine wins. Has a strong record out of this box with four wins and three minor placings from nine starts. Should bounce back. BALLYGUR VERNON (4) scored (28.85) last time out at this track adding to an already respectable career. Form here at this distance is sound. The form out of his last race has been franked. Looks a key chance if runs up to latest figure. BLUE WINTER (6) improved his time on first attempt this course and distance with a 5.5 lengths win in 28.69 here latest. Harder here but expected to feature again. CHICKYS SALLY (5) is not to be discarded.

Good effort to score last start by a neck over 480m at this track in 28.77, beating Kells Ruby. Can't recommend in this field.

Was out of the placings last time over 480m at this track (29.19) in an A0, beaten 2.75 lengths. Boasts good form here at the journey with nine wins and eight minor placings from 23 tries. Has ability and should feature.

Good win last start as odds-on favourite by one length over 480m at this track in a handy 28.85, beating Rockpit Blackbob. Ran one of the fastest times on the program in that last win. Stay with him.
