Kilkenny Race 8

525 Yds (A7)

Prize Money: $508

SWIFT FACIA (2) has some solid form under her belt and proved too strong last time to win by 0.8 lengths at this track in a handy 30.06 beating Fast Woman. Comes out of a solid form race last start. Great chance again. BALLYGUR POLLY (1) finds it hard to break through. Has hit the frame the last two runs, the latest when third (30.12) at this track. Will give a great sight again. LARKINS SOPHIE (3) turned spotting a big start finishing fifth (30.65) last time in an A7 at this track. Better than last start and can bounce back. KITS CHOICE (4) placed last time at this track and distance - worth some thought.

In the money at this track at her last couple of starts, most recently finishing third over 480m. Won't find this any tougher. Right in this.

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 (30.56). Key runner based on recent form.

Could only manage sixth last time out over 480m at this track, a continuation of some ordinary form. Prepared to risk on this occasion.

Moderate effort last start when he finished 4th in an A7 on September 16 over 480m at this track behind Scotrath Wiseone beaten 7 lengths (30.38). Doesn't profile as a likely winner.
