Hove Bags Race 3 - Race 3

COPPICE ZAYA (1) comes here following a decent win over 500m at this track in 29.93. Can measure up again if runs up to latest time. CLOUD BLUE (2) turned in a modest effort most recently when fifth at this track over 500m behind Swap Around (30.71) in an A3. Was in the money prior to that. Goes very well from this draw with three wins and three minor placings from seven starts. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. BU HAN TAG (6) looks overdue after a minor placing two back then finishing runner-up at his latest appearance in an A2 at this track over 500m (29.74). This easier and can improve further. CLONKEEN MIXER (3) cannot be left out after placing here at this trip last start.

Was out of the placings last time over 500m at this track (30.71) in an A3, beaten 6 lengths. Strong record at this track and trip with three wins and three placings from seven starts. Likely to be in the finish.

Heading in the right direction and looks close to a maiden win. Fair last time over 500m at this track where he raced on speed but faded to finish second (30.02). Should be much improved on the experience. Solid chance with even luck.

Good performance after racing in the second half of the field and improving to score in an A4 by 1.75 len at this track over 500m (30.06). Cannot enthuse on this occasion.

In the money at this track at his last couple of starts, most recently finishing second over 500m. Won't find this much tougher. Must be included.
