Sunderland Bags Race 8

Durham & District Retired Greyhounds Stakes

Stake: $1,030

MAINEVALLEY BALE (3) turned in a better effort at this track last start, finishing third behind Tassie Tik Tok (27.86) in an A3. Has the pace to be prominent. Good form should continue. MILLHILL GRACE (6) continues to race well but is struggling to break through, placing at her last four runs. Last start finished 2nd over 450m at this track beaten 0.8 lengths (27.71) behind Fair Well in an A3 on June 15. Goes well out of this box with a win and five minor placings. Well-placed to take this out. MARINAS MONZA (2) has been mixing form lately, hitting the frame two back before finishing fourth (27.90) at this track in an A3. Can hit the frame this time. MY MOLLY (5) returned from a break with a 2.75 lengths win in an A4 at this track over 450m (27.74). Up a notch this time but in form and sure to give a good account.

Finished third last start (28.19) over 450m at this track. Coming off a solid run but has won just four of 49 runs. Has to do a bit more.

Races well at this course and distance. Last start finished 4th in an A3 on June 15 over 450m at this track behind Fair Well beaten 3 lengths (27.90). Is a danger.

Finished third last start over 450m at this track behind Tassie Tik Tok in an A3. Has the early speed to land on the pace and can stick on. Hasn't been far away. Don't underestimate.
