Romford Bags Race 12

Bark And Dash Stakes

Prize Money: $815

HARLEY HITCH (5) flew the lids from trap five with a sensational turn of foot and stuck on well despite missing the frame, finishing fourth over 400m this track in 24.58. Has ability and looks hard to stop. BALLYBOY SEAN (6) was a course and distance winner (24.52) last time also from the same draw, scoring by 5.5 lengths in an A8. Has the ability and looks a key chance. YAHOO JIMMY (3) is down a grade after finishing fifth two starts back at this track then was again out of the placings at his latest appearance in an A5 at this track over 400m (25.02). Watch for a better run this easier company. JACKTAVERN TAZ (4) must be respected despite an unplaced effort here most recently.

Solid performance after racing in the second half of the field and improving to score on debut in an A7 by nose at this track over 400m (24.42). Likely to find this too tough.

Races well at this course and distance. Last start finished last on May 23 over 400m at this track behind My Sweet Betsy beaten 6 lengths (25.02) in an A5. Should show more than the latest offering. Has claims.

Showed a hot pace early and stuck on well despite missing the frame, finishing fourth this track in 24.58. Has been around the mark at her last couple and should make her presence felt.
