Lifford Race 8

525 Yds (A6)

Stake: $639

FRIDAYS VAN GAAL (6) jumped from the outside trap last start and had a clear run, leading all the way to score (29.71) at this track in an A7 over 480m. Looks a key chance if runs up to latest figure. GARREN WILDCAT (5) had trap 4 and was game in defeat when only 0.8 lengths from Mineolatazmanian in third (29.86) at this track. Can measure up. SNIPER BIG LES (2) was responsible for a modest effort most recently when fifth at this track over 480m behind GARREN WILDCAT (30.88) in an A6. Was a winner the start prior. Has performed well from this box with a win and 15 minor placings to his name from 23 starts. Likely to be about the money. AMELIES JOY (3) has claims fresh from a recent placing from this draw.

Hasn't been far away in two runs. Solid last time over 480m at this track where she settled off pace and boxed on to finish second (30.06). Sure to improve on the experience. This appears within her reach.

Finished fourth two starts ago then regained form last time out when he found one better over 480m in an A7 at this track. Hard to make a case on this occasion.

Latest effort finished 3rd over 480m at this track beaten 0.8 lengths (29.86) behind Mineolatazmanian in an A5 on September 6. Looks a strong winning hope.
