Hove Bags Race 5

Coral 500 Standard Trophy - Heat 2

Prize Money: $1,169

CLAIREKEITH JUDE (2) has missed the frame at his last couple of starts but just a few runs back broke the clock when winning over 500m at this track, taking an A2 in an enormous 29.43. Can measure up again if runs up to recent best times. SLICK SABO (4) can sneak into the finish again. VENETIAN LAD (6) has been mixing form lately, hitting the frame two back before finishing fourth (41.13) at Oxford in a OR. Can feature with the right run. ROGUE DUO (3) was a OR2 winner two back before missing the frame at his latest appearance when fourth in a OR2 at this track over 500m (30.18). Should do better this easier company.
