Hove Bags Race 2

Coral Thursday Night Winner Of One

Prize Money: $1,265

FANTASY ALEX (3) has some solid form under his belt and proved too strong last time to win by half a length at this track in a handy 29.41 beating Hopes Melody. Can make it two on the bounce. FAYPOINT JET (4) comes off an average performance last start when fifth at Monmore over 480m behind Gary The Arb (28.64) in a OR. Has performed well from this box with a win and four minor placings to his name from nine starts. Should be in this for a long way. ANTIGUA FORKY (6) is a consistent dog overall, in the frame at 16 of 36 starts including nine wins but missed the frame latest when fourth (29.57) over 500m at this track. Will go close here with a clear run. CANDOLIM PEARL (2) scored a sizzling A1 win in 29.66 last time. Can measure up again.

Moderate effort last start when he finished 5th in a OR on January 18 over 480m at Monmore behind Gary The Arb beaten 11 lengths (28.64). Can't recommend against this lot.

Finished second last time at this track (29.84) in an A1, beaten 3.5 lengths. Strong record at this track and trip with seven wins and two placings from 16 starts. Looks one of the chances.
