Lifford Race 5

525 Yds (A4)

Stake: $465

KILLMACS BEST (2) won again and recorded an impressive time to make it back to back wins, scoring by one length (28.46) at Derry over 457m. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card in scoring last start. In great recent form and expected to measure up again. HARRYS PEPPER (3) was strongly fancied last time on the back of a win two back but could only manage third (30.04) at this track. BLUE JIG MOLLY (4) missed the frame latest (30.12) when fifth over 480m at this track in an A4. Has two wins already from this trap. Suited here and expected to run well. CROKERS BALE (1) settled back off the inside but went through his gears strongly to find the frame with a 4.5 lengths third (29.99) at this track in A4. The form from his last run stacks up well.

Didn't fire two runs back then progressed nicely last time to finish third over 480m at this track. Back on track last time but this looks a stern test.

In the money two back then disappointed when she finished 5th in an A4 on April 6 over 480m at this track behind Killmacs Best beaten 6 lengths (30.12). More than capable and well placed to find her best form.
