Hove Bags Race 5

Race 5

Stake: $899

DROOPYS FERVOUR (4) was well fancied in betting last start but could only manage 2.25 lengths away in third (30.42). Yet to win out of this box but has been in the placings three times from four starts. Expected to feature. MOANTEEN SHERGAR (5) stalked the lead after a clean break from trap 5 and went on to finish third (30.32) at this track in an A8 over 500m. One of the contenders. LIVEANDLETLIVE (1) is a last-start placegetter at this track and distance - solid claims again. STRAIGHT SHOT (2) followed a unplaced effort at this track two back with a sound third, beaten 1.5 lengths, last start in an A7 at this track over 500m (30.38). Watch for an even better run this easier company.

In the money at this track at her last couple of starts, most recently finishing second over 500m. Won't find this much harder. Definite contender.
