Sunderland Bags Race 8

Durham & District Retired Greyhounds Stakes

Stake: $825

BERETTA MAKALA (1) has been in super consistent form, last time breaking from this same trap when third in a D3 at this track (16.46) and making it three straight placings. Deserves another chance. SHANBALLA GREEN (3) finished second (16.21) two back at this track but out of the placings last time when 6th there. Form here at the trip sound including 21 wins. A forward showing wouldn't surprise. AVAS ATTITUDE (2) is down a grade after finishing sixth two starts back at this track then was again out of the placings at her latest appearance in a D2 at this track over 261m (16.49). This easier so don't rule her out. HAVANA SPECIAL (5) followed a moderate fifth first up with a win by 2.75 lengths last start at this track over 261m (16.37). Up a notch this time but in form and sure to give a good account.

Could only manage sixth last time out over 261m at this track, adding to some plain results of late. Prefer in something easier.

Latest effort finished last in a D3 on October 20 over 261m at this track behind Rustys Councel beaten 5 lengths (16.47). Capable of improvement on latest effort. Well placed and should feature.

Good win last start as odds-on favourite by 2.75 lengths over 261m at this track in a handy 16.37, beating Taylors Elanor. Has ability and among the chances.
