Sunderland Bags Race 11

Durham & District Retired Greyhounds Stakes

Prize Money: $865

SKYWALKER KIT (1) is a strong form, jumping from this same trap to score (15.55) by 2 lengths in a D2 at this track last time and making it back to back wins. Looks the one to beat again. CORAN BONO (5) was a course and distance placegetter (16.10) last time also from the same draw, finishing a 5 length second in a D1. Has the ability and can measure up. CLOHEENA LUCY (3) found the frame for the second consecutive time when narrowly beaten into third last time out (16.22) over 261m at this track. Can turn it around this time. ROCKY BAY ESKE (4) must be among the chances on the last run here.

Could only manage sixth last time out over 261m at this track, a continuation of some ordinary form. Others favoured this time.

Racing consistently, including a win two back at this track, before a 5 length second (16.10) over 261m at this track last time. Has a superb 15.79 best time at this course and distance. Big chance.
