Hove Bags Race 11

Race 11

Stake: $1,008

YOUGO JENNY (2) settled midfield in the run and boxed on to finish there when 4th (30.34) at this track. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. ASHWOOD SHELBY (5) is racing very well, claiming an A7 two back then scored a 0.8 lengths win of an A6 at this track over 500m (30.30) last time. Levels up but can win again. RAPIDO WILLOW (6) showed good early burn and was there until turning but swamped late to finish 6th at this track in A5 company. Form here at the trip sound including 30 wins. Has ability and a bold showing is expected. LAVA KING (1) scored by 0.8 lengths last time (30.20) in an A5 over 500m at this track. Has already won five times from this trap.

Latest effort finished 4th on September 5 over 500m at this track behind Irrelevent beaten 5 lengths (30.34) in an A5. Was in the money three on end before missing the frame last time. Worth another try.

Missed the placings three back but unbeaten in two runs since, the latest claiming an A6 in 30.30 over 500m at this track. Looks well placed to make it three straight.
