Sheffield Bags Race 1

Saturday 24Th January

Prize Money: $604

VERONICASFANTASY (6) was quickly into stride and found the front last start to record an all-the-way win (29.90) at this track in an A9 over 500m. Will go close again if runs up to latest. DERRY REBEL (2) has a moderate overall strike-rate. Finished third (30.60) at this track latest and might be close to finding winning form again. Hard to beat again. TRULY SPECIAL (4) stuck on well last time to finish 1.75 lengths back in third (30.59) at this track in an A8 over 500m. Strong form has emerged from her last run. Can measure up. DIRTY VELVET (1) can finish much closer after missing a cheque at this track last start.

Turned in a much better performance last start when third over 500m at this track in an A8. Worked home well on that occasion and should be closing well again. Looks a strong winning hope.

Form has been sound without winning, placing at her last five starts, the latest when third (30.59) over 500m at this track. Comes out of a hot form race. Worth following up.

Unplaced two runs back then made impressive progress last time to finish second over 500m at this track. Cannot enthuse despite that better recent effort.
