Nottingham Bags Race 8 - Nottingham-Greyhounds.co.uk Maiden Sprint Trophy
SCOOBY MATILDA (1) has a strong record this trip with four wins and five placings from 12 starts. In the money last time at Towcester (16.17) in a OR, finishing a 2 length third. Looks a leading chance on best. BALLYARD NELL (3) is having her first start around this course. Scored in best time on card (16.02) latest winning by 1.3 lengths at Dunstall Park in a D1. Recorded the quickest time on the card last start. Deserves serious consideration again. PIMLICO PRINCESS (5) had trap 4 and was game in defeat when only 1.75 lengths from Shelt Hill Rosie in second (15.02) at this track. Has performed well from this box with a win and six minor placings to her name from eight starts. Bold showing expected. SKYFALL DINGO (2) is by Ballymac Wild out of Ballymac Floral making debut. Profiles nicely but market best guide to ability.

Consistent performer who is new here. Nice win last start by 1.3 lengths at Dunstall Park (16.02) beating Headford Jake in a D1 on May 14. Looks to be back in fine fettle. Makes plenty of appeal.

Made debut and was safely held in fifth (15.40) over 255m at this track. Harder here and place prospects appear best.
