Lifford Race 1

525 Yds (A4)

Stake: $474

STAYING HOPEFUL (2) drew the inside trap and won last time at this track and distance (29.55), scoring by 5 lengths. Looks the one to beat. BELLMORE ZOEY (3) pinged the lids and led throughout to score last start (29.33) at this track in A5 over 480m. Ran one of the fastest times on the program in her latest win. Can measure up again. URBANESQUE (5) was well back throughout but attacked the line strongly to place, 4.5 lengths from the winner (29.92) at this track in A3. Has never been out of the placings from two starts out of this box. Expected to be in this for a long way. TOMS SYDNEY (1) was strongly fancied last time on the back of some good form but finished third (29.97) at this track. Racing well and deserves a win.

Racing consistently, including a win three back at this track, before placings at last two runs, the latest when third (29.97) over 480m at this track. Should be around the mark.

Good performance after racing on the speed to score in an A4 by 5 len at this track over 480m (29.55). Form reads well for this.

Didn't fire two runs back then progressed nicely last time to finish second over 480m at this track. Hard to make a case on this occasion.
