Hove Bags Race 12 - Coral Sussex Cup Trial Stakes - Division B

BLACKSTONE OPERA (5) boasts a strong record this journey here with seven wins and four minors from 14 tries. Hit the frame latest (29.12) when second at Towcester in a OR2. Looks the one to beat with even luck. WESTWOOD SHAY (2) looks close to another win after finishing second last time (30.33) at this track. Deserves a win and gets his chance. DROOPYS EXTRAGUD (3) has an excellent record over this course and distance having never missed the placings in 12 starts, including four wins and eight placings. Recorded a 1.3 lengths win (30.22) in a OR last time at this track. Suited here and expected to run well. OWER CRACKER (1) is heading the right way. In the minors two back with a narrow second then scored by 1.5 lengths in a OR3 last time at this track over 515m (30.43). Rises in grade but can measure up with repeat of latest.

Moderate effort last start when he finished 4th on July 3 over 575m at Romford behind Bombshell Bullet beaten 8 lengths (35.57) in a OR. Shouldn't trouble the top few hopes.

Well supported and gave a sight after a sizzling early split but could manage only second (29.12) over 500m at Towcester. The last run is a strong form reference. Follow up.
