Hove Bags Race 5

Race 5

Stake: $872

ROMEO SPARTA (6) has been in super consistent form, last time breaking from this same trap when second in an A4 at this track (30.31) and making it three straight placings. Has the ability and looks a key chance. ANNADOWN JACOB (4) was well in the market last time but only managed fourth (30.43), beaten 1.5 lengths. Was in the money the start prior. Has ability and a bold showing is expected. PUNK ROCK HARLEY (2) was a winner (30.03) two back off the rails draw then got further back last time but came home hard into fifth at this track (30.38). Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. SULLANE BISCUIT (5) boasts a solid strike-rate from this box.

Moderate effort last start when he finished 4th over 285m at this track beaten 2.75 lengths (16.87) behind Limestone Fizz in a D2 on June 4. Not among the main chances this time.

Got back early in the race last start when fifth over 500m at this track. Before that won by a nose at this track (30.03) beating Im Justa Rarity in an A5 on June 4. Major threat on best form.

In the money two back then disappointed when he finished 4th in an A4 on June 15 over 500m at this track behind Lacken Holly beaten 1.5 lengths (30.43). Had been in strong form, hitting the frame two times on end, before the latest effort.

In the money at this track at his last couple of starts, most recently finishing second over 500m. Won't find this any tougher. Right in this.
