Romford Bags Race 6

Welcome To Romford Stakes

Stake: $1,028

CRAFTY FRITTO (5) doesn't have the best strike-rate but recent form is sound. Has been in the minors the last two runs, the latest finishing second (35.75) at this track. The form from her last run is stacking up nicely. Makes plenty of appeal. BUBBLY JACK (4) has placed at the last three runs, the latest finishing third (36.76) at this track. Super consistent and can feature with the right run. FINBARRS LAUGH (3) has been in super consistent form, finishing in the minors at his last four runs. Last start finished 2nd on July 12 over 400m at this track behind Le Fou beaten one length (24.65) in an A3. Well placed and gets his chance. MANDELA (6) followed a minor placing first up with a win by 4 lengths last start in an A5 at this track over 400m (24.48). Faces stiffer opposition but hard to leave out.

Could only manage fourth last time out over 400m at this track, adding to some plain results of late. Hard to have this time.

Racing well of late. In the money two starts back at this track then finished runner-up at his latest appearance in an A3 at this track over 400m (24.65). Sure to play a major role.

Finished second over 575m at this track (35.75) at the last run ten weeks ago. Has had two runs first-up and has placed once. Looks one of the better hopes in the race.
