Nottingham Bags Race 9

Bgbf British Bred Midlands Sprint Trophy - Heat 1

Prize Money: $1,420

ZEBEDEE CLUASA (2) jumped favourite and quickly to the front but run down late to finish second (28.62) at Monmore in a OR3 over 480m. Didn't win last time but still ran one of the quickest times on the card. Must come into calculations. BONNIES LEGACY (6) had won three in a row before finishing fifth (30.27) last time at this track. Has a strong record out of this box with two wins and a minor placing from five starts. Key runner who gets her chance to atone. WHELAN (1) filled the minor money three on end before breaking through for a deserved win last time, scoring at Monmore over 480m (29.19). Makes plenty of appeal if runs up to latest. LEELAD (5) is in winning form and worth including in the main hopes.

Good effort to score last start by a nose over 480m at Monmore in 29.19, beating Longrange Comet. Should be around the mark.

Unplaced two runs back then made impressive progress last time to be beaten just half a length into second over 480m at Monmore. The recent effort suggests he is ready to win.

Showed a hot pace early and stuck on well despite missing the frame, finishing fourth this track in 30.52. Not keen despite the good run last time.

Good effort to score last start by 4.5 lengths over 500m at this track in 30.69, beating Jaymir Arlo. In a purple patch of form and likely to run well again.

Racked up three wins on the trot before finishing fifth (30.27) in a OR1 over 500m at this track last time. Forgive the latest result. Looks hard to beat this time.
