Sheffield Bags Race 3

Owlerton Stadium Standard

Prize Money: $1,736

FARNEYS WILLIE (3) showed little early speed at his last couple, the latest finishing fourth (36.70) in a OR at Star Pelaw. Solid record here winning nine races. The form out of the last run is proven to be strong. Has ability and can bounce back. SUPERB MORNING (4) lines up chasing another win after getting around the 500m at this track in a solid 29.24 two back then following up with a 28.79 win at this track over 500m last time. Flying lately and can measure up again. ARE MALIKIAN (2) was a winner (29.41) two back off the rails draw then got further back last time but came home hard into fourth at this track (29.45). Expected to feature in the finish. UP THE GAME (1) placed last time out at this track and distance - worth considering.

Got back early in the race last start when fourth over 500m at this track. Before that won by 2.25 lengths at this track (29.41) beating Romeo Missile in an A2 on August 22. Didn't show up last start but give him another chance.

Latest effort finished 4th over 590m at Star Pelaw beaten 7 lengths (36.70) behind Emilys Superstar in a OR on August 25. Thereabouts at the last couple. Suited here and likely to run well.
