Romford Bags Race 9

Coral 100 Champion Stakes Final

Stake: $56,228

GROUCHOS GREGOR (3) is on a hot streak recording a 35.36 win over 575m at this track last start following on from a convincing 35.12 victory at this track over 575m the start prior. Should be in this for a long way. FORTANACH COL (5) was in the placings last time but prior to that produced a strong 35.38 win over 575m at this track. Must include on winning run two back. BUBBLY HOLLY (4) was sent out big odds last time but scored an upset win in a OR1 at this track (35.95). Yet to win out of this box but has been in the placings four times from seven starts. Looks a key chance if runs up to latest figure. AAYAMZA LEGEND (6) is a last start winner who can measure up again.

Racing well of late. In the money two starts back at this track then finished runner-up at his latest appearance in a OR1 at this track over 575m (36.29). Facing a difficult assignment this time.

In top form with a four run winning streak. Well fancied last start won by one length at this track (35.36) beating Fortanach Col in a OR1 on October 16. Flying lately and can score again.
