Romford Race 2

Welcome To Romford Stakes

Stake: $1,026

REASONTOBELIEVE (1) was always prominent from this same draw last time and boxed on well to place (24.66) in an A2 over 400m at Romford. Leading player again. LE FOU (6) is down a grade after finishing fifth two starts back at Romford then was again out of the placings at his latest appearance in an A2 at Romford over 400m (24.54). Well placed this class and looks a key runner based on best form. MICKS AMIGO (2) picked up a cheque out of this box most recently - in the mix again. MICKS BOY (5) flew the lids with a sensational early split and led throughout to score an impressive win by 2.5 lengths over 400m at Romford (24.35). Well placed and can measure up.

Won two starts back when racing on pace at Romford on February 4 over 400m in 24.22. Sent for a break following a placing over 400m at Romford in A2. Has a win and two minors from six fresh up runs. Looks a strong place chance.

In the money at Romford at his last couple of starts, most recently finishing third over 400m. Won't find this much harder. Right in the mix.

Below his best last time over 400m at Romford (24.54) in an A2, finishing 1.75 lengths away in fourth. Strong record at this track and trip with five wins and three placings from 15 starts. Has ability and is a key chance.
