Romford Bags Race 12

The Home Straight Showdown

Prize Money: $695

CARLOW ROAD (3) was popular in betting last start but disappointed when 9 lengths away in fourth (25.11). Was in the money the start prior. Can make amends. BLUE SHINE (6) finished fourth last time (25.06) at this track after winning at her previous two outings. Expected to give a good account. DISTANT DIANA (5) has some solid form under her belt and proved too strong last time to win by 4 lengths at this track in a handy 24.60 beating Sundance Sasha. Has definite claims. DROVERS VIOLET (4) picked up a cheque out of this box most recently - in the mix again.

Missed the placings three back but unbeaten in two runs since, the latest claiming an A10 in 24.79 over 400m at this track. Place looks best without further improvement.

In the money two back then disappointed when she finished 4th over 400m at this track beaten 9 lengths (25.11) behind Aero Buster in an A9 on October 3. Has run slick time here with a 24.38 PB at the distance. Go close.

Had won two on end but missed the hat-trick last start when fourth and beaten 5.5 lengths (25.06) in an A9 over 400m at this track. Well placed and a great chance to atone.
