Hove Bags Race 4 - Coral Thursday Night 500 Standard - Division C

FRONT POLO (3) was a winner (29.19) at this track two back but out of the placings last time when 6th there. The form out of his last race has been franked. Rates on top in this line up. CLONA KODY (6) wasn't far away at the finish when 4th and beaten only 1.2 lengths (29.87) at this track. Solid record here at the distance winning four races. Must be included in calculations. NEWINN OSCAR (2) was sent out big odds but ran the quickest time of the card (28.04) when an upset winner over 480m at Monmore. Some good form is emerging from his last run. Makes plenty of appeal if runs up to latest. SWORDS HERO (1) is heading the right way. In the minors two back with a narrow second then scored by 2.5 lengths in a OR3 last time at this track over 500m (29.44). Levels up but key runner based on recent form.

Solid performance after racing in the second half of the field and improving to score in a OR3 by 2.25 len at Monmore over 480m (28.04). Looks to have an edge on most of these.
