Nowra Race 7

Ladbrokes Nowra Puppy Classic Ht 3 H

Prize Money: $3,455

SECRET BANDIT (1) had been racing well with a Grade 4 win three back then placed next time before missing the frame latest at Wentworth Park. Expecting sharp improvement this line-up. DENNIS KEEPING (3) missed the frame and was safely held latest finishing 8th at Wentworth Park following on from a second place finish (29.64) there the start prior. The form out of his last race has been franked. Likely to play a prominent role. DANGEROUS WHEELS (2) was out of in the placings when fourth last time but three runs back posted a handy 29.89 win over 520m at Wentworth Park. Rates a leading chance if runs up to recent winning time. BACK TOMORROW (5) has merit but will need to be at her best to take this out.

Missed the frame last start when seventh and beaten 10 lengths at Wentworth Park. Form solid prior to that including a win at Wentworth Park three back. Best figures puts her right in this and well worth another chance.

Showing promise and was a winner three back. Last start missed the frame when a 12 length fourth (30.55) at Wentworth Park. Suited here and expected to bounce back.

Could manage only eighth last time but impressed the start prior when he recorded a blistering 29.64 over 520m when went down narrowly, at Wentworth Park. Has the ability and looks hard to top.
