Hove Bags Race 6

Race 6

Prize Money: $785

CANT BUY TIME (1) was well in the market last time but only managed fourth (29.92), beaten 3.5 lengths. Was in the money the start prior. Looks the one to beat on her best form. SKILFUL JACK (3) finds it hard to win but has a consistent overall record, having placed 19 of 40 career runs. Has been in the minors the last two runs, the latest finishing second (30.09) at this track. Can measure up. DROOPYS SPOTLITE (2) followed a moderate fifth at this track two runs ago with another plain effort last time to finish fourth, beaten 5.5 lengths, in an A4 at this track over 500m (30.63). This easier so don't rule her out. FERRYFORTH ZARA (4) boasts a solid strike-rate over this trip.
