Kilkenny Race 9

525 Yds (A1)

Stake: $252

MISSION CONTROL (6) won again in another strong performance after tracking the lead recording back to back wins, scoring by 2 lengths (29.12) at this track over 480m. The form out of the last run is proven to be strong. Can continue on his winning ways. CARRIGEEN WHIT (3) produced a blistering 28.77 winning over 480m at this track last start. In form and must include in calculations. JIMI HOUNDRIX (5) has been in super consistent form recently with two minors on end before missing the frame latest finishing fifth (30.06) at this track. The form out of his last race has been franked. Should be about the mark. FOYLE EMMA (2) solid chance again.
