Romford Race 3

Ashwells Greyhound Retirement Home

Stake: $904

ABSCONDER (6) missed the frame latest when fifth at Romford (24.96) but scored five back at Romford (24.67). Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. WITCHES TRIO (1) used the inside draw to advantage to get the prize last time at Romford and distance (24.91), scoring by 3 lengths. Expecting another good run. BEAR ESSENTIAL (5) is progressing well with another good run last time, placing (24.82) from Box 6 at Romford. Has a strong record out of this box with seven wins and three minor placings from 17 starts. Can measure up. JEOPARDY VENUS (4) was in the money last start from this box - poses a threat again.

Started big odds last time but gave a huge sight after a sizzling early spilt before being grabbed late to finish third (24.91) at Romford over 400m. Hard to have this time.

Finished fourth two starts ago then regained form last time out when he found a couple better over 400m in an A7 at Romford. Cannot be ignored based on that sound recent effort.

Showed a hot pace early and stuck on well despite missing the frame, finishing fifth Romford in 24.96. Was in the money three on end before missing the frame last time. Worth another try.
