Kilkenny Race 3

525 Yds (A7)

Stake: $621

ZOOS KAYA (5) stalked the lead from trap four and kept coming to win (29.95) at this track in A7 over 480m. Can continue the winning form. SMITHROES CHOICE (1) turned in a fair 4th placed finish last time at this track over 480m (30.25). Great chance to atone. SWIFT ZIP (4) was well supported last time but could only manage second (30.04), beaten 1.75 lengths. Overdue and expected to feature again. WOMAN IN BLACK (2) has been in the money at her last two runs, most recently when third (30.08) in an A7 over 480m at this track.

Moderate effort last start when he finished 4th over 480m at this track beaten 2.5 lengths (30.09) behind Milford Kyle in an A7 on January 28. Can't make much of a case this time.

Good effort after racing on the speed to score in an A7 by 3 len at this track over 480m (29.95). Makes plenty of appeal. Go close again.
