Monmore Race 9

Ladbrokes.com 480 Puppy - Heat 2

Prize Money: $1,305

DROOPYS POKER (5) lines up chasing another win after sizzling around Monmore over 480m in 28.46 on May 3. In form and rates on top again. LONGACRES DELBOY (1) is progressing well and looks close to another win after hitting the frame last run (28.51) at Perry Barr. Expected to feature again. FOUR THE HUNT (4) failed to feature last start after losing his position early at Monmore, but prior to that won comfortably by 4 lengths at Swindon (28.66) beating Moreton Mischief in an A4 on April 12. Shapes as one to consider. AERO ACADEMY (6) can play a role in the finish without surprising.

Comments

Charged out of the boxes with a hot early sectional but gathered in and finished third (28.51) at Perry Barr over 480m. Thereabouts at the last couple. Suited here and likely to run well.

Got back early in the race last start when sixth over 480m at Monmore. Before that won by 2.5 lengths at Monmore (28.93) beating Aero Bee in an A6 on April 26. Not keen, needs to lift.

Got back early in the race last start when fifth over 480m at Monmore. Before that won by 1.75 lengths at Monmore (28.81) beating Swift Reassure in an A7 on April 29. Likely to find this too tough.

Winner two starts back at Swindon when scoring by 4 lengths in 28.66. Last start finished 5th on May 6 over 480m at Monmore behind Thru The Roof beaten 3.5 lengths (29.00) in an A4. Worth consideration on best form.
