Limerick Race 9

525 Yds (A7)

Stake: $627

HONEYPOUND SOFIA (1) turned spotting a big start finishing fourth (30.10) last time in an A7 at this track. Should be very hard to beat this time. WESTWIND CABRA (4) is super consistent without winning and long overdue, having placed six of eight career runs and finishing in the money again latest at this track. In the money at the last four runs. Will give a great sight again. MELLON SARAH (5) was well fancied last time on the strength of the win two back but could only manage third (30.06) at this track. Expected to be in this for a long way. FIRE PET (3) was out of the money here last time out but can bounce back.
