Hove Bags Race 4

Coral Dual Distance Trophy - Heat 1

Prize Money: $1,174

BURROWS ECLIPSE (6) was out of the placings last time but shapes well for this on his flying win the start prior, getting around this track over 515m in 29.92. Hot win two back and looks the one to beat here. DROOPYS JIVER (4) last seen when scorching around the 500m at this track in 29.39 for a 1.5 lengths victory. Top win latest and can measure up again. RIOJA MADAM (2) scored (29.09) last time out over 480m at Newcastle three-and-a-half months ago. Has a good record at this journey. Overall strike-rate good and can feature with the right run. LINKS HARD DECK (3) is a last start winner worth following up.

Unplaced two runs back then made impressive progress last time to finish third over 515m at this track. Hard to make a case on this occasion.

Missed the placings at the final run of her last campaign, finishing fourth over 480m at Newcastle on February 20. Looks a strong top-three chance.

Good effort to score last start by a nose over 500m at this track in 30.03, beating Clairekeith Dexi. Solid chance with even luck.

Winner two starts back at this track when scoring by 8 lengths in 29.92. Last start finished 4th over 712m at Towcester beaten 12 lengths (43.46) behind Savanaregimental in a OR2 on June 1. Better than that and worth following up.
