Shelbourne Race 8

550 Yds (Aa0)

Prize Money: $820

KAPUKA COLEY (6) stuck on well last time to finish 1.75 lengths back in third (29.56) at this track in an AA0 over 503m. Capable of going well again. SLIPPERY BRIAN (5) boxed on well to finish second last time, beaten 1.5 lengths (29.54) behind Grouchos Chief at this track. Expected to feature again. IN THE SUNSET (3) was well fancied in betting last start but could only manage 3 lengths away in third (29.48). Got the money at his only try from this box. Nicely placed to grab a well-deserved win. WAITINGFORASTAR (2) is a last start winner worth following up.
