Sheffield Bags Race 5

Race 5

Prize Money: $721

RUSSANDA ZARA (6) has a fair record and proved too strong last time to win by 2 lengths at this track in a handy 16.08 beating Chasing Evie. Can continue the winning form. FINNERY KOBE (3) is a well performed sprinter ideally suited at the shorter trips. Kept coming to finish fifth over 280m at this track (16.33) latest in a IV. Form here at this distance is sound including three wins. Boasts two wins from three starts out of this box. Has the ability to give this a shake. RUSSANDA MARIO (1) is better than last start when fourth (16.81) in a IV at this track over 280m. Goes very well from this draw with nine wins and six minor placings from 16 starts. Must be included in calculations. MEMORIES PAYBACK (4) will give backers a sight.

Comments

Won two starts back when racing on pace at this track on January 16 over 280m in 16.16. Sent for a break after missing the frame over 280m at this track in IV. Yet to win but has placed from two first-up up runs. Looks a key chance fresh.

Was out of the placings last time over 280m at this track (16.33) in a IV, beaten 4.5 lengths. Strong record at this track and trip with three wins and four placings from nine starts. Has ability and is a key chance.

Good win last start as odds-on favourite by 2 lengths over 280m at this track in a handy 16.08, beating Chasing Evie. Was in the money five on end before breaking through last start. Stick with her.
