Hove Bags Race 2

Race 2

Stake: $1,049

RAZOR GUN (4) missed the frame over 500m at this track latest but ran a respectable 29.83 when beaten 5.5 lengths. Should be in this for a long way. HOMETOWN (1) has an excellent record over this course and distance having never missed the placings in seven starts, including three wins and four placings. Comes off a (29.55) win last time, scoring by 7 lengths in an A2 over 500m at this track. Looks suited and should go close. BU HAN TAG (6) turned in a modest effort most recently when fifth at Towcester over 500m behind Tivoli Milo (29.69) in a OR. Scored at his previous run. Bold showing expected. BLUESTAR BOSS (2) has ability and can feature with the right run after missing a cheque here most recently.

Winner two starts back at this track when scoring by 5 lengths in 29.58. Last start finished 5th over 500m at Towcester beaten 8 lengths (29.69) behind Tivoli Milo in a OR on May 25. Better than that and worth following up.
