Sunderland Bags Race 9

Sunday Roast Lunch At Sunderland Dogs Stakes

Prize Money: $941

LINTON RALPH (4) has a strong record this track and trip with five wins and four placings from 14 starts. Comes off a (27.92) win last time, scoring by 1.5 lengths in an A2 over 450m at this track. Has the ability and looks a key chance here. FINLEYS SAVIOUR (1) scored two back then drifted back and missed the frame latest finishing a 8 length 4th at this track (28.12). Can measure up this time. ALLOWDALE CANNY (5) filled the minor money four on end before breaking through for a deserved win last time, scoring at this track over 450m (27.73). Recorded one of the quickest times on the card in scoring last start. One of the prime contenders. ANTIGUA ICEMAN (3) was unplaced here last start but gets his chance to atone.

Good effort after racing in the second half of the field and improving to score in an A2 by 1.5 len at this track over 450m (27.88). Likely to find this too tough.

In the money two back then disappointed when he finished 5th over 450m at this track beaten 9 lengths (28.20) behind Romantic Tessie in an A2 on March 5. Not far away last start. Right in the mix again.
