Hove Bags Race 10

Megan Richardson Stakes

Stake: $1,413

GUZZLER (6) has a strong record this track and trip with 12 wins and 12 placings from 30 starts. Was out of the placings last time (16.72) at this track in a OR, finishing fourth and beaten 5.5 lengths. Rates on top and should go close. RONNIES OSCAR (3) is progressing well with another good run last time, placing (16.52) last time out at this track. Has a good record here including four wins. Didn't win last time but still ran one of the quickest times on the card. Expected to feature again. AVARUA ZLATAN (1) missed the frame last time when sixth (27.73) at Oxford but prior to that had nine placings in a row. Has a good record here including three wins. The form from his last run is stacking up nicely. Has ability and can atone. DROOPYS WILL (2) looks well placed here following a OR3 win two back before finishing fifth at his latest appearance in a OR at Monmore over 480m (29.08). Well suited here and gets chance to atone.

Flew the lids with a sizzling early split but gathered in late when a narrow sixth (27.73) over 450m at Oxford. Well placed and among the chances here.

Racing well of late. In the money two starts back at this track then finished runner-up at his latest appearance in a D1 at this track over 285m (16.52). In form but not keen here.

Impossible to fault having won all three starts so far. Well fancied last start won by 1.5 lengths at Towcester (15.44) beating Not So Slow in a OR2 on June 14. On a hot winning streak and likely to score again.

Handy type with a solid strike-rate. Winner two back then well fancied last time and could manage only second over 400m at Romford in 24.03. Comes through a good form race. Looks a top chance.
