Sunderland Bags Race 9

Durham & District Retired Greyhounds Stakes

Prize Money: $849

EMERS MACIE (1) is worth forgiving for her last effort when fourth (16.23) at this track over 261m. Should bounce back. RUBIK CUBE (3) wasn't far away at the finish when 4th and beaten only 3 lengths (16.16) at this track. Has a good record here at this journey. Has a strong record out of this box with four wins and a minor placing from eight starts. Should be about the mark. SUNSET DAYBREAK (2) latest effort finished 3rd over 261m at this track beaten 2.75 lengths (16.13) behind Geronimos Ghost in a D2 on June 22. Looks well placed here and among the chances. CARRICK ROONEY (4) is in the mix despite missing out at this track last time.

Racing consistently, including a win two back at this track, before a 2.75 lengths third (16.13) over 261m at this track last time. Looks well placed and should prove hard to beat.
