Hove Bags Race 2 - Coral Sunday Afternoon 285 Sprint
VENETIAN RICKY (1) broke from this trap and proved too strong to claim a OR win at this track in the fastest time of the card. In winning form and can measure up again. CLOHEENA BOYCE (3) was a winner two back and strongly fancied last time but could only manage fifth (17.02) at this track. Expected to run well. EMERS DEX (5) finished well back at Central Park last time when a 7 length sixth (16.92) but back to the course now of his latest success. Form here at the trip sound including four wins. Has a solid record from this box including two wins and a minor placing. Can measure up this time. ELITE LIBERTY (4) is a last start winner worth following up.

To win on debut won comfortably by 3.5 lengths at this track (16.49) beating Makeyamindup in a OR on September 3. Will find this much tougher but he should put himself in the race early. Looks to be back in fine fettle.

Started big odds last time but hit the ground running with a sensational early split, giving a sight but fading out of it to finish fourth (24.45) at Romford over 400m. Needs to find a bit more.

Could only manage sixth last time out over 277m at Central Park (16.92) in a OR. Boasts good form here at the journey with four wins and three minor placings from nine tries. Key chance on best figures.
