Kilkenny Race 2

525 Yds (A7)

Stake: $598

EMPOLEON (6) was prominent early from trap 5 and did a fair job to be beaten 4.5 lengths into second (30.08) at this track in an A6 over 480m. Must come into calculations. GORTKELLY PINKY (1) turned spotting a big start finishing fourth (29.91) last time in an A7 at this track. Expected to feature in the finish. CHILTERN EMMIE (4) filled a minor placing last start at this track behind Jimi Houndrix (29.90) in an A7. Has the pace to be prominent. Expected to feature again. HEY FIESTA (5) was out of the frame here most recently but can atone.

Moderate effort last start when she finished 4th on March 21 over 480m at this track behind Jimi Houndrix beaten 12 lengths (29.91) in an A7. Hard to recommend this time.

Racing consistently, including a win three back at this track, before placings at last two runs, the latest when second (30.59) over 480m at this track. Should be right in the finish.

In the money two back then disappointed when she finished 4th in an A7 on March 12 over 480m at this track behind Kits Crow beaten 1.75 lengths (30.18). Has ability and worth including.

Finished in the money latest and looks close to a win. Solid run last time when third (29.90) at this track over 480m. Should be much improved on the experience. In the money last time but has the job ahead.

Racing well of late. In the money two starts back at this track then finished runner-up at his latest appearance in an A6 at this track over 480m (30.08). Racing well and is the one to beat.
