Hove Bags Race 10

Race 10

Stake: $1,024

MINEOLA SURPRISE (5) is going well, finishing in the placings twice in a row. Not beaten far last time when a 1.75 lengths third (30.10) in an A5 at this track. Can make amends this time. HOPES CANDY (2) was an impressive winner last time in quickest of the meeting when scoring by a nose (42.43) at this track. Rates a leading chance again. AWARENESS (4) is a capable type and proved too classy last time to win by a head at this track in a handy 30.25 beating Classic Bucko. One of the key runners again. BROADFIELDBULLET (3) should be thereabouts after filling a top-three spot most recently.

Not seen at best last start when he finished 4th over 500m at this track beaten 4.5 lengths (30.11) behind Jess Again in an A5 on October 22. Looking to others this time.

Solid effort after racing in the second half of the field and improving to score in a S3 by nose at this track over 695m (42.43). Makes plenty of appeal. Go close again.
