Romford Race 3

The Dale Martin 3rd Marriage Classic

Prize Money: $752

BUMP N RUN (5) made light work of trap five with a scorching early sectional last time, and clocked 24.28 in a 0.8 lengths win at Romford over 400m. Expected to measure up again. DISTANT LAYLA (4) was prominent early from trap five and stalked the lead before levelling up to score (29.46) at Central Park in a OR over 491m. Has definite claims. SCOOBY TOPAZ (1) turned in a better run last time to find a minor placing (24.71) at Romford behind Express Tag in an A3. Has the early speed to land on the pace and can stick on. Winning chance. HEROIC KING (3) can sneak into the finish.

Flew the lids with a sizzling early split but found one better when clocking 24.71 over 400m at Romford. Solid chance with even luck.

Good effort after racing on the speed to score in a OR by nose at Central Park over 491m (29.46). Strongly fancied and lived right up to expectations last start. Stick with her.
