Hove Bags Race 6

Race 6

Stake: $1,005

RIOJA MINSTREL (6) was in the placings last time but shapes well for this on his flying win the start prior, getting around this track over 500m in 29.76. Can measure up again if runs up to recent best times. CROSSFIELD CRAIG (1) is heading the right way. Out of the placings two back then scored by 1.3 lengths last start at this track over 500m (29.95). Levels up a grade but rates well this line-up on latest. Follow up. DOGNOR PADDY (3) quickly into stride to win over the 500m at this track two runs back then prominent throughout when finishing second at this track last start. Expected to feature again. CLAIREKEITH MERY (4) is long overdue having been in the money at the last six starts, the latest when third in an A3 at this track over 500m (30.08). This easier so don't rule her out.

Good win last start as odds-on favourite by 1.3 lengths over 500m at this track in a handy 29.95, beating Skilful Jack. Goes very well from this draw including three wins. Leading player.

Unplaced two runs back then made impressive progress last time to be beaten just one length into second over 500m at this track. May find this a bit too tough.

Quickly away last start and finished runner-up over 500m at this track. Has run blistering time here with a 29.54 PB at the distance. Must include if he recaptures that form.

Followed a minor placing at this track two runs ago with a sound third, beaten 5.5 lengths, last start in an A3 at this track over 500m (30.08). This might be too rich.

Missed the placings three back but unbeaten in two runs since, the latest claiming an A5 in 30.18 over 500m at this track. Looks a solid hope.

Racing consistently, including a win two back at this track, before a 6 length third (30.27) over 500m at this track last time. Going well and can bounce back to winning form.
