Hove Bags Race 4

Race 4

Prize Money: $775

DROOPYS SPOTLITE (3) was out of the placings last time but shapes well for this on her solid win a few runs back, getting around this track over 695m in 42.11. Expected to push the clock again here. PUNKROCK MERCURY (6) has missed the frame the last couple but was an A4 winner three back (29.91) at this track over 500m. Expected to do much better this time. FEORA CARA (4) was safely held last time out, finishing fifth at this track over 500m behind Shanahee Trevor (30.08) in an A4. The form from her last run stacks up well. Better than last start and can bounce back. FIRST CHOSEN (1) can find the frame without surprising.

In the money two back then disappointed when she finished last in an A4 on January 16 over 500m at this track behind Cloheena Del Boy beaten 8 lengths (31.11). Racing well and has to be included.

Finished fourth two starts ago then regained form last time out when she found a couple better over 500m in an A4 at this track. Better last time but not convinced this is her race.

Latest effort finished 4th in an A4 on January 16 over 500m at this track behind Five Winters beaten 5.5 lengths (30.76). Has been around the mark at his last couple and should make his presence felt.
