Nottingham Bags Race 5

Arc Winner Of One 480M Trophy

Prize Money: $1,352

WITTON GUCCI (5) posted a decent 28.83 when placed over 480m at this track last start in a OR. Expected to go close again if runs up to latest time. BALLYHIMIKIN LEE (3) had been in great form but was out of the placings last run, finishing fourth (30.27) in a OR3 at this track. Normally fast to begin but shuffled back last time. Form here at the trip sound including six wins. Great chance to atone. CAPE ISLAND (4) stalked the lead after a clean break from trap 4 and went on to finish third (30.37) at this track in an A1 over 500m. Leading chance. WITTON CASH (1) was well fancied last time on the strength of his recent form but could only manage third (28.00) at Sunderland. Deserves a win and gets his chance.

Followed a minor placing at Sunderland two runs ago with a sound third, beaten 0.7 lengths, last start in an A1 at Sunderland over 450m (28.00). Key runner based on recent form.

Could only manage fourth last time out over 500m at this track, adding to some plain results of late. Would be better placed in something easier.

Latest effort finished 4th on June 2 over 500m at this track behind Carrick Fergie beaten 12 lengths (30.27) in a OR3. Missed the frame last time but prior to that had two placings in a row. Deserves another chance.

Racing well of late. In the money two starts back at Newcastle then finished runner-up at her latest appearance in a OR at this track over 480m (28.83). Consistent performer who is clearly the one to beat.
