Kilkenny Race 8

525 Yds (A3)

Prize Money: $836

SANDYHILL PEARL (4) has been settling off the speed lately, finishing fifth (29.62) last time in an A3 at this track. Consistent performer from this draw with a win and two minor placings to her credit. Tough to beat if on-song. BALLYDAN GRANGE (1) shapes as hard to beat after winning last start over the 480m at this track in a decent 29.13. This tougher but looks a leading chance again. GIDDYUP JOE (2) has been out of the placings last two but prior to that clocked a strong 29.18 win over 480m at this track. Expected to feature on best figures. COMER HONDO (3) is very honest and looms as a strong winning hope again.

Last start finished 4th on August 21 over 480m at this track behind Gymstar Cashin beaten 16 lengths (29.90) in an A3. Has run a slick time here with a 29.18 PB at the distance. Worth including.

Good win last start as odds-on favourite by 2.5 lengths over 480m at this track in a handy 29.15, beating Feed Me Whiskey. Ran the fastest time on the program in the latest win. Worth following up.
