Romford Bags Race 4

Ashwells Greyhound Retirement Home

Stake: $864

DA YOUNG LAD (5) has missed the frame the last couple but was an A8 winner three back (24.75) at this track over 400m. Has the ability and can find winning form this time. SWIFT LORENZO (4) had been racing well with an A11 win three back then placed next time before missing the frame latest at this track. Can feature with the right run. FOUR CANDLES (1) has been hard to follow lately, running sixth (36.98) last time but prior to that ran very well when placed at this track. Can find the frame this time. BLUE SPARTA (2) picked up a cheque last time and is in the mix again.

Last start finished last over 575m at this track beaten 8 lengths (36.98) behind Loris Girl in a S5 on April 5. Expect improvement on the latest effort. Great chance to atone.

Big odds but gave a huge sight after burning early, finishing a 5 length third (25.32) over 400m at this track. Can't recommend in this field.

Good performance after racing in the second half of the field and improving to score in an A10 by nose at this track over 400m (24.76). Must be a winning chance again.

Flew the lids with a sizzling early split but gathered in late when a narrow fourth (24.70) over 400m at this track. Forward showing expected.
