Sunderland Bags Race 4

Book Online @ Sunderland-Greyhounds.co.uk Stakes

Prize Money: $950

LAURENS BRUNO (1) has been settling off the speed lately, finishing sixth (28.43) last time in a HCP at this track. Can atone. RUSSMUR JOSH (5) turned in a solid run last start over 450m at this track finishing 5th and beaten only 2.75 lengths (28.28). Was a winner at his only start from this draw. A big run wouldn't surprise. LINTON RONALD (6) stalked the lead from trap 4 and boxed on well to finish a nose back in second (27.88) at this track in an A3 over 450m. Yet to win out of this box but has been in the placings four times from four starts. Racing well and deserves a win. NEON DRIFTER (4) showed pleasing improvement after a modest effort two starts ago with a handicap win by half a length breaking from 2m at this track over 450m (27.92). Tackles another handicap and will start off 2m. Talented handicapper who has recorded two wins in four runs from the staggered starts. Hard to knock.

Last start finished last on May 14 over 450m at this track behind Barden Bella beaten 4.5 lengths (28.43) in a HCP. Below best last time but looks well placed here. Deserves another chance.

Could only manage fourth last time out over 450m at this track, adding to some plain results of late. Others make more appeal.
