Hove Bags Race 8

Race 8

Prize Money: $875

DROOPYS BAFTA (5) had been racing well prior to his last start fourth at Oxford following an A7 win three back with a second placing. Looks suited here and big improvement expected. SLINGSHOT COISTY (3) has some solid form under his belt and proved too classy last time to win by 0.8 lengths at Newcastle in a handy 29.21 beating Days Lashing. Comes out of a solid form race last start. Makes plenty of appeal on the back of that last-start win. ASTON MARTINI (1) should be thereabouts despite an unplaced run here most recently. Something for the Multiples: DAZL TWINK STAR (2)

Could only manage fourth last time out over 695m at this track, adding to some plain results of late. Not one of the leading chances on this occasion.

Latest effort finished last on December 28 over 450m at Oxford behind Jazzy Soul beaten 6 lengths (27.65) in a OR. Yet to win but has been in the money four times from seven starts off this trap. Right in the mix.

Good effort to score last start by 1.5 lengths over 500m at this track in 30.20, beating Mad Mouse. Hard to entertain this time.
