Hove Bags Race 3

Jan Bibby's Hero's For Swbc

Prize Money: $1,291

MINSTRELS SIX (4) recorded a 1.75 lengths win (42.12) in a OR last time at this track. Already a winner from this trap. Looks a leading chance on best. SWIFT JARVIS (5) is a promising dog in the frame at 21 of 47 starts including 12 wins and was in the minors again latest (47.51) over 750m at Romford. Has a good record here including 11 wins. Will go close here with a clear run. IVY HILL CHERRY (3) has a strong record this track and trip with four wins and five placings from 12 starts. In the money last time at this track (42.31) in a OR, finishing a 2.25 lengths third. Makes strong appeal on best. BETWEENTHESTICKS (1) justified the favourite's tag last time - cannot be taken lightly.

Consistent performer who is new here. Nice win last start by a nose at Oxford (40.36) beating Melbury Eclipse in a OR on September 13. Must be a winning chance again.

In sparkling form at the moment, having scored three on the trot. Clocked the fastest time on the card latest with a 42.12 success over 695m at this track. On a hot winning streak and likely to score again.

Didn't fire two runs back then progressed nicely last time to finish third over 750m at Romford. Looks all set to find the winners' list.

Racing well of late. In the money two starts back at this track then finished third at her latest appearance in an A2 at this track over 500m (29.82). In form but not keen here.
