Hove Bags Race 5 - The Suffolk Stakes

GINGERS PADDY (3) is generally an honest type in the frame at one of nine starts but missed the placings last time when fifth (30.47) over 500m at this track. Goes very well from this trap. Looks well placed here and should prove hard to beat again. WESTCOAST ROCKET (1) has a strong record this journey here with four wins and a minor from eight starts. Below best last time at this track (30.22) in a OR, finishing a 6 length fifth. Looks one of the chances. RURAL TEN (4) scored (30.74) last time out over 500m at this track 11 weeks ago. Expected to feature on best form. WESTWOOD ELLIS (2) has ability and can feature with the right run after missing a cheque here most recently.

Got back early in the race last start when fifth over 500m at this track. Before that won easily by 11 lengths at Lifford (28.93) beating Benbradagh Pep in an A5 on September 12. Not far away last start. Right in the mix again.

Moderate effort last start when he finished 4th in an A3 on October 10 over 500m at this track behind Newinn Noddy beaten 4.5 lengths (29.97). Shouldn't trouble the top few hopes.
