Waterford Race 10

525 Yds (A3)

Stake: $720

NANS ZIGGY (6) was in the placings last time but prior to that produced a strong 29.16 win over 480m at this track. Has the ability and looks hard to top. BALLYGUR POOKIE (5) boasts a strong record this journey here with 18 wins and 16 minors from 49 tries. Missed the frame latest (29.63) when fifth over 480m at Kilkenny in an A3. Can feature in the finish. HILLDUN SHADOW (1) is a capable type and proved too strong last time to win by 0.8 lengths at this track in a handy 29.39 beating Jacktavern Tiger. Goes well out of this box with a win and four minor placings. Should feature again. NAYLORS TEA POT (3) was a winner two back then strongly fancied last time but could only manage a second (32.00) at this track. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card last start despite being beaten.

Form slipped last start when he finished last over 480m at this track beaten 11 lengths (29.79) behind Beebees Dream in an A3 on March 12. This looks too tough.

Below his best last time over 480m at Kilkenny (29.63) in an A3, finishing 5.5 lengths away in fifth. Boasts good form here at the journey with 18 wins and 16 minor placings from 49 tries. Well placed and should feature.
