Hove Bags Race 4

Race 4

Prize Money: $851

CRYSTAL PRINCE (3) scored an A5 win fresh then missed the placings last time, finishing fourth and beaten 11 lengths in an A5 at this track over 500m (30.61). Will find this easier and looks tough to beat on best. MINEOLA SURPRISE (6) finds it hard to break through. Better run when finding the frame last time though, finishing second (30.14) at this track. Must be included in calculations. SIGNET CLO CLO (4) has missed the frame at her last couple but wasn't beaten far three back when second (29.94) at this track in an A5. Has the ability and can find best this time. CLOHEENA RODNEY (5) can finish much closer after missing a cheque at this track last start.

Below best last start when he finished last over 500m at this track beaten 9 lengths (30.48) behind Melbury Curly in an A5 on February 4. This looks too tough.

Could only manage fifth last time out over 500m at this track, a continuation of some ordinary form. This looks too tough.

Races well at this course and distance. Last start finished last in an A6 on February 4 over 500m at this track behind Classic Bucko beaten 2.25 lengths (30.27). Forget the latest effort. Among the chances.

Didn't fire two runs back then progressed nicely last time to be beaten just 0.8 lengths into second over 500m at this track. Put the writing on the wall last start so follow him up.
