Nottingham Bags Race 9

Pgr On Sky Sports Red Button Stakes

Prize Money: $940

BASIC INSTINCT (5) last start finished 3rd on April 4 over 500m at this track behind Mac The Lad beaten 3.5 lengths (30.89) in an A5. Can find winning form. FEORA KATE (6) missed the placings two runs ago at this track then claimed a handicap off scratch by 6 lengths at this track last start over 500m (30.62). Tackles another handicap here and will jump off scratch. Smart handicapper who has one win and two placings from four runs from the staggered start. Sure to give a good account. LOXLEYS DIVA (3) has impressed of late in handicaps, scoring two back at this track then finishing second at her latest appearance off scratch at this track over 500m (31.01). Has a 3m start on the scratch dog. Hard to knock the recent form. THISTLECRACK BOY (4) has been mixing his form in handicaps. Nice effort to finish second two runs back breaking from 5m at this track then only managed fifth, beaten 6 lengths, last start when off 5m at this track over 500m (31.15). Today will jump off 3m. Deserves another chance.
