Sunderland Bags Race 5

Durham & District Retired Greyhounds Stakes

Stake: $921

HARLEQUIN EILISH (4) finished in the minors last start over the 450m at this track but ran a strong 27.54 last start. Rates a top chance again if runs up to latest. LIMA ROSE (1) is a capable type and proved too classy last time to win by a neck at this track in a handy 40.49 beating Chelms Maggie. Comes through a solid form race last start. Makes plenty of appeal on the back of that last-start win. FAIR WELL (2) is heading the right way. Out of the placings two back then scored by 6 lengths last start at this track over 450m (27.88). Faces a stiffer grade but latest effort hard to fault. WITTON WILLIAMS (3) is a newcomer from the J Sutherst kennel. Can sneak into the frame at his first appearance.

Solid performance after taking an early lead to score in a OR3 by neck at this track over 640m (40.49). In winning form now and looks a major threat.

Good effort to score last start by 6 lengths over 450m at this track in 27.88, beating Marinas Quebec. This will test.

Form of late has been fair. Unplaced two starts back at this track then finished runner-up at her latest appearance in an A2 at this track over 450m (27.54), beaten 3 lengths. Heading the right way and looks tough to beat.
