Nottingham Bags Race 3

Homing Dogs With West Yorkshire & District Stakes

Stake: $1,067

VALE BLUEBELL (2) showed little early speed at her last couple, the latest finishing fifth (44.92) in a OR1 at this track. Solid record at the distance winning 10 races. The form out of her last race has been franked. Key runner on her best form. RATHCOOLE REDS (5) has a strong winning strike-rate over this journey with two wins and a placing from six tries. Scored by 1.3 lengths last time (30.05) in an A2 over 500m at this track. Can feature in the finish. CAPE ISLAND (4) could manage only fifth at this track last time but impressed when clocking a brilliant 29.73 over 500m at this track the start prior. Rates a leading chance if runs up to recent winning time. CURRAGHMORECHAMP (1) is worth consideration.

Hit the ground running with a sizzling early sectional but gathered in late to finish a 3.5 lengths fourth (30.64) at this track. Is a danger.

Last start finished last over 730m at this track beaten 13 lengths (44.92) behind Mongys Wild in a OR1 on September 8. Comes through a good form race. Looks a top chance.

Charged out of the boxes last time with a scorching early split and led all the way for a 0.8 lengths win (30.33) at this track. Place looks best without further improvement.
