Nottingham Bags Race 4

Watch Pgr On Sky Sports Racing Stakes

Stake: $1,011

HITMAN MARSHALL (5) is a talented type and proved too classy last time to win by 0.8 lengths at this track in a handy 30.69 beating Makaylas Dream. In form and can go on with it. SONNYS GIRL (4) is heading the right way. Out of the placings two back then scored by 2 lengths last start at this track over 500m (30.57). Key player on latest and worth following up despite the tougher class. HITTHEBOTTLENEIL (6) carved over from wide out last start and boxed on strongly to finish 1.5 lengths away in third (30.65) behind Cloneen Gift at this track. Winning chance. MAC THE LAD (3) is going well, filling a minor placing two back then was a 3 length winner of an A5 at this track over 500m (30.62). Faces a stiffer grade but latest effort hard to fault.

Didn't fire two runs back then progressed nicely last time to finish third over 500m at this track. Back on track last time but this looks a stern test.

Missed the frame three back but has since scored back to back wins, the latest a HCP at this track (30.69). Top chance to chalk-up the hat-trick.

Finished third last start over 500m at this track behind Cloneen Gift in an A4. Has the early speed to land on the pace and can stick on. More than capable and ready to find best form.
