Nottingham Bags Race 9 - Watch Pgr On Sky Sports Racing Stakes

ALWAYSOPTIMISTIC (3) had been in super honest form hitting the frame four times on end before finishing fourth (30.98) at this track last time. Consistent performer from this draw with a win and three minor placings to his credit. Worth another chance. ANNADOWN GUGGY (6) is a capable type and proved too classy last time to win by 2.75 lengths at this track in a handy 30.73 beating Churchill Queen. Deserves serious consideration again. HONOUR VACATION (2) was safely held last time out, finishing fifth at this track over 500m behind Sambar Prince (30.94) in an A2. Placed at his previous run. Worth another chance. PIEMANS FAIRY (1) placed last time from this box - worth considering.

Racing well of late. In the money two starts back at this track then finished third at her latest appearance in an A3 at this track over 500m (31.20). Decent recent form so demands respect.
