Cambridge Race 12

MAY HOUNDS GREYHOUND REHOMING GROUP STAKES

Stake: $6,300

MORE MAGIC (5) has a strong record this trip with five wins and eight placings from 14 starts. Comes off a (25.73) win last time, scoring by 4 lengths in a Class 5 over 457m at this track. Makes strong appeal and should win again. BIG TIME ASHTON (8) ran below his best last time finishing fifth (31.10) over 520m at Wanganui in a Class 5. Solid winning record at this trip. Solid formlines coming through his last run. Has ability and a bold showing is expected. AIN'T IT FUN (4) is in top form, scoring by a head (25.98) over 457m at this track and making it back to back wins. Winner at her latest appearance in one of the quickest times on the card. Likely to be in the finish. ALL OVER ROVER (6) placed last start at this track and distance and is in the mix again.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (26.22) in a Class 5, finishing a 7 length fourth. Fairly consistent record from the draw including a win and two minors. Others rate better this time.

Found some support last start but struggled and finished 5th in a Class 5 on August 1 over 520m at Wanganui behind Boom Dynamite beaten 7 lengths (31.10). Placed two back at Wanganui Straight. Comes through a solid form race. Well placed and should feature.
