Raise Money With Fund Racer From Sunderland Dogs Stakes

Prize Money: $881

SURPRISE BLUE (4) spotted a start but wound up strongly to place when a neck third (28.01) at this track in HCP. Top chance in this line up. LADY CHRISTIE (2) is a promising type who notched her 4th career success when too good (27.94) at this track last time. Form at the trip excellent including four wins. Winner at her latest appearance in one of the quickest times on the card. Sure to be thereabouts. MATTS BOMBER (3) turned in a fair 4th placed finish last time at this track over 450m (28.02). Should be thereabouts. JACKTAVERN KEANO (5) followed a minor placing two runs ago with a plain effort last time to finish fourth, beaten 8 lengths, in an A1 at this track over 450m (27.97). Deserves another chance this easier class.

Form slipped last start when she finished 5th in an A2 on March 17 over 450m at this track behind Fagans Pika beaten 11 lengths (28.41). Doesn't look smart enough to threaten the top few.
