Shelbourne Race 5

525 Yds (A0)

Stake: $1,884

SWORDS STYLE (5) turned in another strong performance after leading them home to make it two on end at Curraheen Park over 480m (28.52). Some good form is emerging from his last run. Can measure up again. MONTANA SHADOW (6) is progressing well and looks close to another win after hitting the frame from Box 6 last run (29.05) at Kilkenny. Comes out of a solid form race last start. Leading chance. MAGICAL KEITH (1) was speedy out of box 4 on debut to score by 9 lengths (28.45) at this track over 480m. Must include in calculations. SOLO AND GO (2) found the frame here last start and looks a top-three hope again.

Blistering performance after taking an early lead to score on debut in a ON2 by 9 len at this track over 480m (28.45). Has hit winning form and is worth thought again.

Followed a minor placing at Curraheen Park two runs ago with a sound second, beaten half a length, last start in a S0 at this track over 320m (18.70). Not to be underestimated.

Followed a minor placing first up at this track two starts ago with a solid third last time, beaten 8 lengths in a ON1 at this track over 480m (28.92). This might be too rich.

Consistent performer who is new here. Nice win last start comfortably by 5.5 lengths at Curraheen Park (28.52) beating Footfield Violet in an A0 on June 7. In top form and can make it three straight.

Handy type with a solid strike-rate. Winner two back then well fancied last time and could manage only third over 480m at Kilkenny in 29.05. Comes out of a hot form race. Worth following up.
