Nottingham Bags Race 9

Homing Dogs With West Yorkshire & District Stakes

Prize Money: $933

SWIFT NIKITA (3) was below best last time finishing fourth at this track, but prior to that had been racing well including an A5 win two back at this track. Key player on best and expected to bounce back. MANUKA DUCHESS (1) has been in super consistent form, last time breaking from this same trap when second in an A4 at this track (31.16) and making it three straight placings. Worth another try. SKYFALL ORNA (4) is down a grade after finishing sixth two starts back at this track then was again out of the placings at her latest appearance in an A3 at this track over 500m (30.98). Watch for a better run this easier company. THE OTHER SIMONE (5) should be thereabouts despite an unplaced run here most recently.

Form has been sound without winning, placing at her last three starts, the latest when second (31.16) over 500m at this track. Looks a strong winning hope.

Winner two starts back at this track when scoring by 2.5 lengths in 30.50. Last start finished 4th in an A4 on June 20 over 500m at this track behind Roxhill Monarch beaten 7 lengths (31.04). Well worth another chance.

Charged out of the boxes with a sizzling early sectional but swamped late when a close up fifth (31.03) at this track over 500m. Capable of taking this out.
