Romford Bags Race 12

Oakfront Lemon Hat Trick Race

Prize Money: $714

TRUST (1) had been super consistent recording two placings in a row before she was rewarded with a win last time, scoring at this track over 400m (24.76). Can go close again if runs up to latest figure. YOUNG POPPY (4) produced a moderate effort last time when sixth at this track over 400m behind Raha Wishes (25.24) in an A9. Consistent performer from this draw with a win and six minor placings to her credit. Expected to feature in the finish. OAKFRONT LEMON (3) scored by 2 lengths last time (24.81) in an A10 over 400m at this track. Boasts a top strike-rate from this trap, winning three of five runs. With even luck and a clean start can sneak into the finish. RAIDILLON (2) is down a grade after missing the frame two back at this track then finished third at his latest appearance in an A8 at this track over 400m (24.91). This easier so don't rule him out.

Finished third last start over 400m at this track behind Real Gone Lover in an A8. Has the early speed to land on the pace and can stick on. Has been racing well enough. Among the chances.

Didn't fire two runs back then progressed nicely last time to finish second over 400m at this track. Back on track last time but this looks a stern test.

Sent out long odds last time but rocketed out of the boxes with a scorching early sectional and gave a sight before being swallowed up late, finishing a 5.5 lengths fifth (24.97) over 400m at this track. Prepared to overlook.
