Shelbourne Race 8

550 Yds (Aa0)

Stake: $774

SWORDS STYLE (3) is looking to continue his winning ways off a fast 29.56 victory in an AA0 at this track. Expected to push the clock again here. DROOPYS DEPLOY (6) missed the frame last time at this track but the start prior rocketed around 503m at this track in 29.44. Has the ability and can find winning form again. BADLY BEHAVING (2) goes very well this trip starting 21 times for seven wins and six minors. Placed last time (30.07) at this track in an AA0, finishing second and beaten 3 lengths. With even luck and a clean start should be thereabouts. MAGICAL KEITH (4) placed last start at this track and distance and is in the mix again.

Unplaced two runs back then made impressive progress last time to finish third over 503m at this track. Back on track last time but this looks a stern test.

Form has been sound without winning, placing at his last three starts, the latest when second (29.68) over 503m at this track. Better than the last couple of runs suggest. Expected to feature.
