Hove Bags Race 2 - Coral Sussex Cup Sprint Trophy - Heat 1
SHADOW STORM (2) ran a good 16.44 when placed over 277m at Central Park last start in a OR1. In form and rates on top this time. SLANEYSIDE SWADE (5) scored by 4.5 lengths last time (16.13) in a D1 over 285m at this track. Loves this trap, having won six of 10 starts. With even luck and a clean start can sneak into the finish. RODRIGUEZ (1) comes into this as a quickest on the card winner last time at Sheffield, scoring by 2.5 lengths (15.71). Deserved serious consideration again. EMERS DEX (3) good strike-rate overall and must be included.

To win on debut won by 2.5 lengths at Sheffield (15.71) beating Keady Touch in a IV on April 12. Will find this much tougher but he should put himself in the race early. Has hit winning form and can go on with it.

Solid effort after taking an early lead to score in a D1 by 4.5 len at this track over 285m (16.13). Had been in fine form, hitting the frame four times on end, before a deserved win last time. Can measure up again.
