Sunderland Bags Race 9

@Sunderlanddogs On Twitter Stakes

Prize Money: $910

LOVE THE DOGS (2) looks close to another win after hitting the frame in a 1.0 lengths third (27.91) in an A2 at this track. Can find winning form. LINTON RALPH (3) was popular in betting last start but disappointed when 1.4 lengths away in fifth (27.95). Finished second the start before. Has ability and can measure up. HELICOPTER LOTTY (1) drew the inside trap and won last time at this track and distance (27.83) after being shuffled back early, scoring by 0.8 lengths. Should be in this for a long way. WATERMILL MYA (4) warrants respect following a recent placing over this course and distance.

Turned in a better effort over 450m at this track last start, finishing third behind Helicopter Lotty in an A2. Has the early speed to land on the pace and can stick on. Has the ability to take this out.

In the money two back then disappointed when he finished 5th on February 2 over 450m at this track behind Helicopter Lotty beaten 1.4 lengths (27.95) in an A2. More than capable and well placed to find his best form.

Racing well of late. In the money two starts back at this track then finished third at her latest appearance in an A2 at this track over 450m (28.05). Sure to play a big role.

Unplaced two runs back then made impressive progress last time to be beaten just one length into second over 450m at this track. Cannot enthuse despite that better recent effort.

Could only manage sixth last time out over 450m at this track, a continuation of some ordinary form. Not up to this.
