Sheffield Bags Race 8

Owlerton Stadium Standard

Stake: $2,121

ACOMB FELIX (3) has a strong record here with 29 wins and 26 placings from 64 starts. Recorded a 0.8 lengths win (27.64) in a OR3 last time at Doncaster. Expected to be in the finish. CATUNDA CIARAN (6) was in the placings last time but prior to that he posted a dominant 29.36 win over 483m at Doncaster. Rates a leading chance if runs up to recent winning time. COLLIERS BRYNNER (4) comes off a big run when second in a respectable 16.92 at Doncaster over 275m. In form and looks a leading player again. SLIPPY KEITH (1) is a last-start placegetter out of the same box - worth considering.

Finished fourth two starts ago then regained form last time out when he found one better over 483m in a IV at Doncaster. Heading in the right direction and well placed to fill another top-three spot.

Good win last start as odds-on favourite by 0.8 lengths over 450m at Doncaster in a handy 27.64, beating Keefill Rocky. Makes plenty of appeal. Go close again.
