Sunderland Bags Race 5

Retired Greyhounds Make Great Pets Stakes

Prize Money: $827

SURPRISE BLUE (6) jumps from trap 6 again after finishing a 0.8 lengths second (27.77) last time at this track over 450m. Should be in this for a long way. NOT TO BE (5) dropped out early but hit the line hard, charging into third and beaten 2.25 lengths win (27.89) at this track in A2. Hard to beat again. KILWEST LILY (4) goes very well this course and distance starting 14 times for five wins and five minors. Placed last time (27.80) at this track in an A2, finishing second and beaten one length. Among the main chances. DEACON KISSY (3) is down a grade after finishing fifth two starts back at this track then was again out of the placings at her latest appearance in an A1 at this track over 450m (28.03). This easier so not to be underestimated.

Unplaced two runs back then made impressive progress last time to be beaten just half a length into second over 450m at this track. Cannot enthuse despite that better recent effort.
