Yarmouth Bags Race 2

Race 2

Prize Money: $558

FRATTON BARK (2) is down a grade after missing the frame two back at this track then finished third at his latest appearance in a D1 at this track over 277m (16.63). Will find this easier and looks tough to beat on best. DRIVE ON BELLE (3) followed a moderate fifth at this track two runs ago with another plain effort last time to finish fifth, beaten 3.5 lengths, in a D1 at this track over 277m (16.72). Suited here and can turn form around. SAILORSHOMEXOCET (5) finished fifth last time at this track but could not have been more impressive a few runs back in her sharp 28.06 win at this track over 462m. Top win three back and rates a key player again. HEADFORD ARIA (1) warrants respect with the drop in journey.

Missed the placings at the final run of her last campaign, finishing fifth over 462m at this track on September 27. Has never been out of the money from three first-up runs. Looks a strong top-three chance.

Didn't fire two runs back then progressed nicely last time to finish third over 277m at this track. The recent effort suggests he is ready to win.

Latest effort finished last in a D1 on February 8 over 277m at this track behind Two Slip Jigs beaten 3.5 lengths (16.72). Key chance on best form.

Disappointed last start over 462m at this track when beaten 5 len (28.59) behind Rosshill Annie on November 29. Other runners look much more appealing.
