Central Park Bags Race 8

Race 8

Prize Money: $905

SOCRATES SMILED (1) has been in super consistent form recently with two minors on end before missing the frame latest finishing fourth (30.68) at this track. Can bounce back. LEMON MAXINE (5) has a fair record and proved too strong last time to win by one length at this track in a handy 30.10 beating Hollyhill Melody. Can make it two on the bounce. UP TA HILL (4) has been out of the placings at his last couple but on the winners' heels when placing three back (16.85) in a D2 at this track. Has the ability and expected to do much better. PEARCES WILLOW (3) should bounce back after an unplaced effort here recently.

Flew the lids with a sizzling early split but gathered in late when a narrow fourth (30.68) over 491m at this track. Capable of improvement on latest effort. Well placed and should feature.

Finished fifth two starts ago then regained form last time out when she found a couple better over 491m in an A4 at this track. Cannot enthuse despite that better recent effort.

Winner two starts back at this track over 491m in 30.05. Last start was short of her best when 6th over 491m at this track in A3. Should show more than the latest offering. Has claims.

Last start finished last on October 3 over 491m at this track behind Dapper Finn beaten 16 lengths (30.63) in a OR. Forget the latest effort. Among the chances.

Well supported last time and flew the lids with sizzling early pace, clocking 30.10 in a one length win at this track. Looks well placed and should be tough to beat.
