Sunderland Bags Race 11

Sunday Roast Lunch At Sunderland Dogs Stakes

Stake: $878

ROMANTIC TESSIE (4) has a strong winning strike-rate over this track and trip with seven wins and a placing from 15 tries. Scored by one length last time (15.83) in a D1 over 261m at this track. Rates a leading player. PLAY ON WORDS (6) was out of the placings last time but shapes well for this on his enormous win a few runs back, getting around this track over 261m in 15.73. Expecting another bold showing. TULLYMURRY SHINE (3) shapes well after a slick run last time, finishing second in a D1 at this track in 15.77. Expected to feature again. CAPE QUEST (5) cannot be overlooked following a recent top-three finish here at this distance.

Moderate effort last start when she finished 4th on May 19 over 450m at this track behind Crossfield Conni beaten 5 lengths (28.18) in an A2. Happy enough to avoid.

Racing consistently, including a win three back at this track, before placings at last two runs, the latest when second (15.77) over 261m at this track. Should be around the mark.

Winner two starts back at this track over 261m in 15.82. Last start hit the frame over 261m at this track in D1. Close to the speed and boxed on well at his latest run. In the mix again.

In the money two back then disappointed when he finished 4th on June 22 over 261m at this track behind Tullymurry Shine beaten 1.75 lengths (15.92) in a D1. Thereabouts of late and rates highly this line-up. Expected to be in the finish.
