Hove Bags Race 5

Race 5

Prize Money: $1,015

BALLYHIMIKIN LAD (5) goes very well at this journey here having never missed the frame including two wins. Recorded a 2 length win (29.87) in an A1 last time at this track. With a clean break looks hard to beat. SEOMRA BENJI (6) recorded a one length second in an A1 last time 29.85 at this track and trip and also jumping from the same draw. Must include in calculations. DEADLY RUBEN (1) had the drop on the lead from the inside draw and kept coming to score (30.03) at this track in A1 over 500m. Some good form is emerging from his last run. Form should stack up. BRIDESIDE BELLE (3) gets a chance to redeem an unplaced effort here last start.

Not seen at best last start when he finished 5th over 695m at this track beaten 15 lengths (43.17) behind Blackstone Harry in a OR on August 20. Other runners look much more appealing.

In sparkling form at the moment, having scored two on the trot. Continued winning form latest with a 29.87 success over 500m at this track. Looks well placed to make it three straight.
