Romford Bags Race 1

Romford Tuesday 3Rd February 2026 Pgr Meeting

Stake: $1,056

DA BLUE TIGER (6) won by a head last start at this track 400m in a swift 24.34. Expected to go close again if runs up to latest time. RATHCREA BALE (4) is heading the right way. In the minors two back with a second then scored by 1.3 lengths in an A3 last time at this track over 400m (24.28). Levels up but can win again with the confidence restored. BOMBAY BREEZE (3) has been mixing form lately, hitting the frame two back before finishing fourth (24.66) at this track in an A2. This looks easier and expected to improve sharply. GALLANT KING (5) was unplaced here last start but gets his chance to atone.

Disappointed last start over 400m at this track when beaten 8 len (24.88) behind Bubbly Alaska on January 28. Looks tested in this company.

Could only manage fifth last time out over 400m at this track, a continuation of some ordinary form. Others hold stronger claims.

Hit the ground running with a sizzling early sectional but gathered in late to finish a 6 length fourth (24.66) at this track. Has claims on best form.
