Romford Bags Race 9

Romford Friday Night 500 Maiden Final

Stake: $1,929

TASTY TURKISH (1) is looking to continue his winning ways off a brilliant 23.98 success at this track. Has the ability and looks a key chance again. GALLANT KING (5) lines up chasing another win after scoring over 400m at this track in 24.19, set up by a brilliant early sectional. Goes well out of this box with a win and five minor placings. Bold showing expected again. WHISKY FLAME (3) ran a good 24.22 when filling a minor placing over 400m at this track last start. Harder here but expected to measure up. RATHMEEHAN BREDA (6) placed last start at this track and distance and is in the mix again.

Flew the lids with scorching early pace and clocked 24.18 in a half a length win over 400m at this track. This tougher again and prefer the place again.

Hit the ground running with a hot early split and tried to lead throughout but had to settle for the minors when second (24.22) at this track. Not one of the leading chances on this occasion.

Chases back to back wins after scoring over 400m at this track in 24.19, set up by a sizzling early sectional. Well-performed from this draw. Key chance on best form.

Started big odds last time but gave a huge sight after a sizzling early spilt before being grabbed late to finish second (24.12) at this track over 400m. Has run very fast time at this course and distance. Worth including.
