Hove Bags Race 9

Team Pretty

Stake: $896

AVARUA FLOJO (4) is in top form with back to back wins. Claimed an A6 two back then scored by 2.25 lengths in an A5 last time at this track over 500m (29.60). Key chance this line-up and despite the tougher grade is hard to go past. DEREKS PAMELA (2) can keep on winning after slick last start success, claiming an A6 at this track over 500m in 29.87. Harder here but expected to feature again. SPORTING BAFTA (3) scored two back when on speed but last start drifted back and could manage only a 8 length 4th at this track (30.50). Deserves plenty of respect. AMAZING FORCE (1) followed a moderate fifth at this track two runs ago with another plain effort last time to finish fourth, beaten 2.25 lengths, in an A3 at this track over 500m (30.00). Deserves another chance this class.

Solid effort after tracking the speed to score in an A6 by 1.5 len at this track over 500m (29.87). Looks the one to beat again.

Missed the frame three back but has since scored back to back wins, the latest an A5 at this track (29.60). Looks well placed to make it three straight.

Didn't fire two runs back then progressed nicely last time to finish third over 500m at this track. Cannot enthuse despite that better recent effort.
