Romford Race 4

Ashwells Greyhound Retirement Home

Prize Money: $894

RAHA GEM (1) is heading the right way. In the minors two back with a narrow second then scored by 3 lengths in an A3 last time at Romford over 400m (23.98). Goes up a grade but expected to to measure up again. ALAN THE FIRST (2) hit the ground running last time with a hot early split and tried to lead throughout but run over late when fifth (24.53) at Romford over 400m. Strong form has emerged from his last run. One of the main contenders. MIAMI SAPPHIRE (3) hit the frame with a narrow third two runs back then claimed an A3 by 1.75 lengths at Romford over 400m (24.33) last time. Facing tougher but in form and not to be underestimated. INNFIELD MELODY (4) is a last-start placegetter with solid claims again.

Hit the ground running with a hot early split and led until late but faded out of the placings when fifth (24.53) at Romford. The last run is a strong form reference. Follow up.

Flew the lids with a sizzling early split but could manage only third (24.22) over 400m at Romford. Has a solid record from this draw including seven wins. Among the chances.

Below best last start when he finished 5th on April 1 over 400m at Romford behind Dinner Charlie beaten 10 lengths (24.86) in an A2. Can't make much of a case this time.
