Hove Bags Race 9

Race 9

Prize Money: $837

JOIN IN (1) is coming off a 3 length fourth but in a decent 29.85 at this track over 500m. Top run latest and looms as the one to beat. MELBURY CURLY (3) finished in the placings last time but could not have been more impressive before that in his speedy 29.95 win at this track over 500m. Must include on winning run two back. KERRS DELILAH (6) missed the frame latest when fifth at this track (29.96) but scored four back at this track (29.72). Key runner who gets her chance to atone. GORGEOUS GIRL (4) can improve on an unplaced run here last time out.

Not seen at best last start when she finished last in an A2 on September 7 over 500m at this track behind Newinn Port beaten 40 lengths (32.60). Can't recommend in this field.

Racing consistently, including a win two back at this track, before a 6 length second (29.88) over 500m at this track last time. Should prove hard to beat.
