Kilkenny Race 8 - 525 Yds (A1)
ORIENTAL DIAMOND (5) last start winner (28.74) at this track who is building a strong winning record. Has a good record here including four wins. Has a good overall strike-rate and shapes as a leading player on best. GLENGAR BLITZ (4) comes here off a handy sixth over 480m at Waterford in 28.72. Harder here but will be in this for a long way. KELLS RUBY (1) had been in great form but missed the frame latest when fourth (29.28) in an A1 at this track. Normally safe to begin but shuffled back last time off the low draw. Was a winner at his only start from this draw. Can figure in the finish. KOSOVO (2) can play a role in the finish without surprising.

In the money two back then disappointed when he finished 4th in an A1 on August 28 over 480m at this track behind Hello Petula beaten 7 lengths (29.28). Solid showing expected.

Won an A2 in 28.74 over 480m at this track at her last appearance 12 weeks ago. Has a win and a minor from two runs when first-up. Looks a definite winning chance.

Could only manage fifth last time out over 480m at Shelbourne Park, a continuation of some ordinary form. Can't recommend against this lot.
