Sheffield Bags Race 2

Adopt A Greyhound @ Sheffield Retired Greyhounds

Prize Money: $841

HOYLAND LAD (2) ran the fastest on the card last time scoring by 0.8 lengths (15.94) at this track. Rates to win again. ELLANNE BEST (6) hit the frame last time at this track but the start prior rocketed around 280m at this track in 15.87. Must include on winning run two back. ROCKING TAYLOR (5) goes very well this course and distance starting 50 times for 17 wins and 16 minors. Below best last time at this track (16.25) in a IV, finishing a 2.75 lengths fourth. Makes strong appeal on best. CHART TOPPER (1) is a last-start placegetter who should be thereabouts.

Good effort after racing in the second half of the field and improving to score in a D1 by 0.8 len at this track over 280m (15.94). Key chance on that latest effort.

Finished sixth two starts ago then regained form last time out when he found one better over 280m in a D1 at this track. May find this a bit too tough.

Below his best last time over 280m at this track (16.25) in a IV, finishing 2.75 lengths away in fourth. Strong record at this track and trip with 17 wins and 16 placings from 50 starts. Can measure up.

Racing consistently, including a win two back at this track, before a 0.8 lengths second (16.04) over 280m at this track last time. The last run is a strong form reference. Follow up.
