Central Park Bags Race 9

Arc Maiden Division 1

Prize Money: $1,509

ASK THE UNIVERSE (5) has a terrific record here with five wins and two placings from seven starts. Placed last time (29.72) at this track in a OR3, finishing third and beaten 3 lengths. Looks a leading chance on best. DROOPYS TOPNOTCH (1) was below best last time but prior to that was narrowly beaten when fifth (29.49) in a OR3 at this track. Can feature with the right run. BALLYHIMIKIN JOE (2) was well back throughout but attacked the line strongly to place, 2.5 lengths from the winner (29.48) at this track in A1. Can feature again. LETS GO LUCIE (4) was out of the frame here on debut but can atone with the right run. Something for the Multiples: BOWES HILL BOCKO (3)

Last start finished 5th over 491m at this track beaten 10 lengths (29.60) behind Brunch Pal in a OR3 on December 27. Yet to win but has been in the money two times from four starts off this draw. Right in the mix.

Followed a minor placing at this track two runs ago with a sound third, beaten 2.5 lengths, last start in an A1 at this track over 491m (29.48). Not to be underestimated.

In the money at this track at his last couple of starts, most recently finishing third over 491m. No easier here and faces a tough task.

Missed the frame on debut over 491m at this track when fourth (29.81) and beaten 6 lengths. Looks a solid contender.

Hit the ground running with a sizzling early sectional but gathered in late to finish a 3 length fourth (30.02) at this track. Tempted to look elsewhere.
