Hove Bags Race 5 - Race 5

BROTHER PATRICK (4) has recorded back to back wins, the quickest two back at this track in 29.50. Has a very good strike-rate from this draw, with two wins from three starts. In top form and looks a key chance again. CLOHEENA CAELAN (3) was out of the placings when fourth last time but prior to that posted an enormous 24.05 win over 400m at Romford. Has the ability and looks a key chance. JACKTAVERN LAB (5) was out of the placings last time when fifth at Central Park (29.49) but scored four back at Newcastle (39.60). Some good form is emerging from his last run. Can do much better this time. DROOPYS STRING (1) has a solid strike rate from this box.
