Sheffield Bags Race 1

Friday 6th November 2026

Prize Money: $638

CHILTERN TRUFFLE (4) has been mixing form lately, hitting the frame two back before finishing fifth (31.08) at this track in an A7. Look for sharp improvement here. VERONICASFANTASY (5) was a HCP winner two back before missing the frame at her latest appearance when fifth in an A7 at this track over 500m (31.54). Suited this easier class and looks a key runner based on best form. HELICOPTER WILMA (3) is down a grade after finishing fifth two starts back at this track then was again out of the placings at her latest appearance in an A7 at this track over 500m (30.90). This easier and can improve sharply. CARPE DIEM (2) has ability and finds the right scenario to bounce back. Something for the Multiples: ROSE DROPS (1)

Comments

Yet to break through after two starts but hasn't been too far away. Solid last time when on speed early before fading to finish third (31.40) at this track over 500m. Likely to be further improved. Happy enough to avoid.
