Hove Bags Race 5

Race 5

Prize Money: $660

RIFLE BULLET (6) jumped from this trap last time and also the same course and distance when a 4 length third (30.67) in an A9. Should be in this for a long way. CHANTALA (1) is heading the right way. In the minors two back with a narrow third then scored by a head in an A10 last time at this track over 500m (30.64). Up a notch this time but expected to measure up again. UPTOWN LAD (5) has missed the placings at his last couple but was in the money three back when third (30.44) at this track in an A8. Has the ability and expected to do much better. HARLEQUIN MANILA (3) has ability and finds the right scenario to bounce back.
