Hove Bags Race 1 - Race 1

FIRE SNOW (4) is a last-start placegetter who will have admirers. POCKET DARCEY (3) is a promising type who notched her 8th career success when too good (29.69) at this track last time. Form here at this distance is sound. Has a strong record out of this box with six wins and six minor placings from 15 starts. Can make it two on the bounce. BLUESTAR BOSS (2) was game in defeat when finished in the minors last start over the 500m at this track, running a good 29.64 in an A1. Harder here but expected to feature again. HOPES MELODY (1) was midfield throughout and finished there last time when 5th (29.90) at this track. Form here at the trip sound including seven wins. Has ability and is a key runner.
