Hove Bags Race 9

Race 9

Prize Money: $758

ANTIGUA LUIGI (1) beaten last start over the 500m at this track but finished in the minors in a respectable 29.94. Should be in this for a long way. CLAIRKEITH PENNY (2) could manage only fourth at this track last time but caught the eye when posting a head turning 29.52 over 500m at this track three starts back. Expecting another bold showing. DROOPYS PROSPECT (3) failed to feature last start after settling well back at this track, but prior to that won by half a length at this track (29.89) beating Straight Shot in an A2 on May 29. Key runner on best form. PUNKROCK MERCURY (6) is one of the chances after a minor prize at this track and distance last time.

Below her best last time over 500m at this track (30.17) in a OR, finishing 7 lengths away in fourth. Boasts good form here at the journey with four wins and three minor placings from 11 tries. Expected to go well.

Didn't fire two runs back then progressed nicely last time to finish third over 500m at this track. Hard to make a case on this occasion.

Didn't fire two runs back then progressed nicely last time to be beaten just 1.3 lengths into second over 500m at this track. Cannot be ignored based on that sound recent effort.
