Waterford Race 4 - 525 Yds (A3)
NANS SPARROW (1) was prominent throughout when winning in the fastest time of the card two back but could manage only midfield last time when finished 4th and beaten 11 lengths at this track (29.96). Some good form is emerging from his last run. Has winning claims on his best figures. JACKTAVERN TIGER (3) turned in a better effort at this track last start, finishing third behind Slaneyside Luke (29.61) in an A3. Has the early speed to land on the pace and can stick on. Expected to feature. RASTAFARI RAFA (5) was a last start winner (29.25) from Box 5 at this track. Significant danger. BALLYGUR MICHAEL (4) placed last time (29.70) at this track in an A3, finishing third and beaten 5 lengths. Already a winner from this trap.

Missed the frame three back but has since scored back to back wins, the latest an A3 at this track (29.35). Harder here and place prospects best.

Turned in a better effort over 480m at this track last start, finishing third behind Slaneyside Luke in an A3. Has the early speed to land on the pace and can stick on. Goes very well from this draw including four wins. Leading player.

Didn't fire two runs back then progressed nicely last time to finish third over 480m at this track. Cannot be overlooked based on that sound recent effort.

Good win last start as odds-on favourite by 6 lengths over 480m at this track in a handy 29.25, beating Risk It Duke. Makes appeal on the back of that latest win.

Could only manage fifth last time out over 480m at this track, adding to some plain results of late. Happy to risk this time.
