Sheffield Bags Race 9

Neil Harrisons 60Th Birthday Race

Stake: $970

STRADBALLY MAC (4) comes off an average effort last start when fifth at this track over 480m behind Good Knick (28.67) in a OR. Remains without a win from the draw but has been in the placings three times from six attempts. Should bounce back. NAMETAB WILLOW (3) boasts a strong record this journey with seven wins and six minors from 20 tries. Comes off a (16.10) win last time, scoring by 1.5 lengths in a D2 over 280m at this track. Rates on top and should go close. SANDWOOD GABBY (1) was out of placings last time (16.22) at this track in a D1, finishing fourth and beaten 3 lengths. Looks suited here and can measure up. BALLYBOSS BLAIR (5) has a solid strike rate at this track and distance.

Could only manage fourth last time out over 280m at this track (16.22) in a D1. Form strong at this course and distance, with two wins and a placing from four starts. Looks hard to beat with even luck.

Good performance after taking an early lead to score in a D2 by 1.5 len at this track over 280m (16.10). Form from this trap is very strong, including three wins. Hard to beat.

Filled a minor placing last time over 280m (16.13) at this track in a D1, beaten 1.75 lengths. Strong record at this track and trip with five wins and two placings from 10 starts. Looks one of the chances.
