Hove Bags Race 7 - Race 7
MERTONABY LAD (6) is heading the right way. Out of the placings two back then scored by half a length last start at this track over 500m (30.30). In winning form and looks hard to beat again. SLIPPY QUEEN (3) produced a modest effort most recently when fifth at Central Park over 491m behind Blackstone Ten (29.78) in a OR. Placed at her previous run. Form from her last run is proving strong. Worth following up. CARAMELS CREAM (5) was prominent throughout when winning two back but could manage only midfield last time when 5th and beaten 6 lengths at this track (30.61). Has ability and can measure up. BROADSTRAND NOAH (1) has been in the money at his last two runs, most recently when third (29.98) in an A4 over 500m at this track.

In the money at this track at his last couple of starts, most recently finishing third over 500m. Won't find this much harder. Right in the mix.

Didn't fire two runs back then progressed nicely last time to be beaten just 2 lengths into third over 500m at this track. Cannot enthuse despite that better recent effort.

Missed the placings at the final run of her last campaign, finishing fifth over 491m at Central Park on September 27. Yet to win fresh but has been in the money two times. Bold showing expected.

Solid effort after tracking the speed to score in an A5 by 0.5 len at this track over 500m (30.30). Has hit winning form and can go on with it.
