Romford Bags Race 8

Chatham Town Fc Sweepstake - Heat 2

Prize Money: $1,019

VELVET ROLO (1) is on a hot streak of form, jumping from this trap to score last time at this track (24.22), making it four straight wins. Can continue the winning form. FUNKY ADZ (4) comes here off a placing in handy time (16.44) over 285m at Hove when beaten 1.3 lengths in a OR. Smart time latest and looks a key chance on that form. DROOPYS RARITY (5) made light work of trap four with a scorching early sectional but swamped late when a close up fifth (24.43) at this track over 400m. Some good form is emerging from his last run. Can figure in the finish. TOO SPICY (2) won again in another strong performance after running them ragged making it three in succession. Faces stiffer opposition but hard to leave out.

Recorded a 4 length win (23.90) in an A4 last time over 400m at this track. Boasts good form here at the journey with four wins and two minor placings from nine tries. Looks one of the chances.

Sent out long odds last time but charged out of the boxes with a sizzling sectional and clocked 24.18 in a nose win at this track. In form but prefer the place this tough line-up.
