Hove Bags Race 2 - Coral Finals Night 500 Puppies
GAV NIFICENT (2) missed the frame two runs back then won at his latest appearance by 4.5 lengths at Dunstall Park over 480m (28.16). Jumps in grade but in winning form and pay to follow up. CLOHEENA CAELAN (4) is a promising dog in the frame at one of nine starts including five wins and was a last start winner (29.83) over 500m at this track. Has an excellent record off this trap. Best form too dangerous to ignore. Have to include. VEGAN WARRIOR (6) boasts a consistent overall record including four wins from 18 starts, the latest hitting the minor money when second (30.04) over 500m at this track. Meets a moderate line up and should run well. SIGNET ELL (5) was out of the money at this circuit last start but can bounce back.

Good effort after racing on the speed to score in an A1 by 0.8 len at this track over 500m (29.83). Makes plenty of appeal. Go close again.

Didn't fire two runs back then progressed nicely last time to finish second over 500m at this track. The recent effort suggests he is a genuine hope.
