Hove Bags Race 1

Ve Day 80Th Anniversary Trophy

Prize Money: $804

CLAIREKEITH MERY (4) was in the minors two back (29.84) at this track but ran below best last time there, finishing 6th. Form here at the trip sound including two wins. Must be included in calculations. SILK ASH (2) finished in the minors last time but the start prior broke the clock when winning over 500m at this track, taking an A5 in a strong 29.94. Should be in this for a long way. LACKEN HOLLY (6) showed good early burn and was there until turning but swamped late to finish 5th at this track in A4 company. Has a good record here at this journey. Rates on top in this line up. KATES BART (3) warrants respect with the drop in trip. Something for the Multiples: ELIZAS SAGAR (1)

Form has been sound without winning, placing at her last seven starts, the latest when third (16.79) over 285m at this track. Not one of the leading chances on this occasion.

Latest effort finished last over 695m at this track beaten 4.5 lengths (42.80) behind Kates Bart in a OR on May 1. Capable of improvement on latest effort. Well placed and should feature.

Winner two starts back at this track when scoring by 1.75 lengths in 29.94. Last start finished last on May 2 over 500m at this track behind Skilful Jack beaten 3.5 lengths (30.67) in an A4. Better than that and worth following up.
