Limerick Race 9

525 Yds (A7)

Stake: $608

HIDDEN GRACE (6) doesn't have the best strike-rate but recent form is sound. Has hit the frame the last two runs, the latest when third (29.72) at this track. Ready to find winning form. MELLON SARAH (4) was midfield throughout and finished there last time when 4th (30.13) at this track. Consistent performer from this draw with a win and three minor placings to her credit. Expected to run well. FIRE PET (2) has shown good improvement at her last two starts, the latest scoring at this track over 480m. The one to beat again. THUNDERIN CASSIE (1) can play a role in the finish without surprising.

Below best last start when she finished last on April 3 over 480m at this track behind Millmount Socks beaten 11 lengths (30.58) in an A7. This looks too tough.

Good win last start as odds-on favourite by 0.8 lengths over 480m at this track in a handy 29.98, beating Tiermana Sky. Looks the one to beat.

Didn't fire two runs back then progressed nicely last time to be beaten just 0.8 lengths into second over 480m at this track. Sure to be thereabouts again.

Could only manage fourth last time out over 480m at this track, a continuation of some ordinary form. Looks up against it this time.

Racing well of late. In the money two starts back at this track then finished third at her latest appearance in an A6 at this track over 480m (29.72). In solid form and can win without surprising.
