Swindon Bags Race 2

Race 2

Prize Money: $687

BALLYMAC ARBAC (6) is a last start placegetter in an A8, jumping from this trap and finishing a 1.75 lengths third over 476m at this track. Boasts a strong record off this same box, including two wins and 16 placings from 24 starts. Has the ability and looks a key chance. MELODYS GLOW (3) had been going along well winning an A8 three back then placing at this track before missing the frame latest when sixth (30.65) at this track. Expected to bounce back to best. MUMS JILL (4) missed the frame last time when fourth (29.34) at this track in an A9 but not beaten far the start prior. This looks easier and expected to improve sharply. DATSTHEWAYTODOIT (1) is worth consideration after filling a hole last start.

Finished fifth two starts ago then regained form last time out when she found one better over 476m in an A8 at this track. The recent effort suggests she is a genuine hope.

Could only manage sixth last time out over 476m at this track, a continuation of some ordinary form. Prefer to watch at this stage.

Last start finished last on December 1 over 476m at this track behind Ballyclearyflash beaten 7 lengths (30.65) in an A7. Looks well placed and should prove hard to beat.

Hit the ground running with a sizzling early sectional but gathered in late to finish a 2.25 lengths fourth (29.85) at this track. Has the ability to be in the finish.

Flew the lids with a sizzling early split but could manage only third (29.88) over 476m at this track. Thereabouts of late and rates highly this line-up. Expected to be in the finish.
