Hove Bags Race 5

Coral Supporting Safer Gambling Week

Stake: $738

RIFLE BULLET (6) clocked a new course and distance PB last time, finishing a 10 length third behind Sui Generes in 30.48. Can measure up if runs up to latest. MY MATE HUGSIE (4) has had a break of 11 weeks since finishing third (30.73) over 500m at this track. Fitter for a trial win at Hove. Has the ability and rates a key chance this line-up. ISTHATOK (5) looks close to another win after hitting the frame last run (30.63) at this track in an A10. Has first look at trap 5 this time. Expecting another good run. SCULLYS GEM (1) missed the placings here most recently but can sneak into the finish with the right run.

Winner two starts back at this track when scoring by 2.5 lengths in 30.88. Last start finished 4th in an A10 on November 8 over 500m at this track behind Roanna Dixie beaten 3 lengths (30.77). Has claims on best and can bounce back.

Below best last start when she finished 5th on November 13 over 500m at this track behind Pounding Sand beaten 9 lengths (30.99) in an A10. Can't recommend against this lot.

Moderate effort last start when he finished 4th on November 13 over 500m at this track behind Pounding Sand beaten 8 lengths (30.89) in an A10. Hard to tip with any confidence.

In the money at the final run of last campaign, finishing third (30.73) over 500m at this track 11 weeks ago. Tends to fire fresh including two wins and two placings from four starts. Looks a definite winning chance.

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 overlooked based on that sound recent effort.

Finished fifth two starts ago then regained form last time out when he found a couple better over 500m in an A9 at this track. Racing well enough to fully test this line-up.
