Hove Bags Race 1

Race 1

Prize Money: $921

RIOJA MINSTREL (5) has missed the placings at his last couple but was in the money three back when third (30.59) at this track in an A2. Can find the frame this time. PUNK ROCK JINXIE (3) scored (46.87) last time out over 714m at Crayford five months ago. Fitter for a trial win at Hove. Has a good record here including six wins. Looks well placed here and has the ability. Go well. SPORTING BAFTA (4) is worth forgiving last start after finishing fourth (30.71) from Box 4 at this track over 500m. Has a strong record out of this box with two wins and a minor placing from five starts. Should be very hard to beat this time. MAHOMES MAGIC (1) filled the minor placings again last time when second (30.09) at this track, making it three straight minors since her last win. Has a good overall strike-rate and can find the frame here.

Finished second on debut then unbeaten in two runs since, the latest an A4 in 30.56 over 500m at this track. Tough line-up and place prospects appear best.
