Sunderland Bags Race 4

The Arena Racing Company Standard Heat 2

Stake: $1,906

SUNNYSIDE GURKHA (3) boasts a strong record this journey here with four wins and three minors from nine tries. Comes off a (27.02) win last time, scoring by 1.75 lengths in a OR over 450m at this track. Looks the one to beat with even luck. WHITEHILLS TITAN (4) continues to race in super honest form hitting the frame at eight of 18 career runs, winning two back before finishing third last time (27.26) over 450m at this track. Has a strong winning record at this journey. Super consistent and can feature with the right run. BRAMBLE ELVIS (1) finished fourth last time but just a few runs back broke the clock when winning over 450m at this track, taking a OR3 in an excellent 27.22. Top win three back and rates a key player again. SWIFT BULLSEYE (6) is always a threat when he draws this box.

Good effort to score last start by 2 lengths over 450m at this track in 27.35, beating More Ice Sully. Looks tested in this company.

Missed the frame three back but has since scored back to back wins, the latest a OR at this track (27.02). Form strong and a huge chance to register the hat-trick.

Racing consistently, including a win two back at this track, before a 3 length third (27.26) over 450m at this track last time. Has run very fast time at this course and distance. Go close on his best form.

Not seen at best last start when he finished 5th over 450m at this track beaten 8 lengths (27.68) behind Sunnyside Gurkha in a OR on August 22. Not going well enough. Needs to lift.
