Lifford Race 10

525 Yds (A7)

Stake: $657

FRIDAYS VAN GAAL (4) stalked the lead then burst clear to score (30.32) at this track in an A7 over 480m. Hard to go past. GORTIN REVIVAL (5) scored (30.16) last time out at this track in an A8 and will break from trap 5 for the first time. Expected to measure up again. ITALIAN LADY (3) has shown good improvement at her last two starts, hitting the frame latest when 3rd at this track over 480m. Expected to be in this for a long way. FARGONEKEEL (2) was out of the frame here most recently but can atone.

Didn't fire two runs back then progressed nicely last time to finish third over 480m at this track. Better last time but not convinced this is her race.

Solid effort after tracking the speed to score in an A7 by 1.3 len at this track over 480m (30.32). Likely to struggle this time.

Got back early in the race last start when fifth over 480m at this track. Before that won by 1.3 lengths at this track (30.23) beating Harrys Lucy in an A7 on November 26. Happy enough to dismiss in this field.
