Hove Bags Race 8

Race 8

Stake: $828

VIOLET FREYA (3) held her own to the line last start and filled a minor placing, beaten only half a length (17.19) behind ANNIE EVA AFTA at this track. Makes plenty of appeal. FLYERS GEEZER (5) finished third two starts back before missing the placings at his latest appearance in a D3 at this track over 285m (16.96). Expected to do much better this easier level. SHES A JUDGE (2) has performed well at her last couple of runs here, most recently when second beaten 4 lengths (17.28). Solid formlines coming through her last run. Expected to be in the finish again. ANNIE EVA AFTA (1) has a solid strike rate from this box.

Finished fourth two starts ago then regained form last time out when she found one better over 285m in a D4 at this track. Racing well enough to fully test this field.

Last start finished 4th in a D3 on January 4 over 285m at this track behind Natural World beaten 5 lengths (16.96). Had been in strong form, hitting the frame two times on end, before the latest effort. Can atone.

Could only manage sixth last time out over 285m at this track, a continuation of some ordinary form. Can't recommend him in this.
