Romford Bags Race 5 - Romford Friday Night 500 Maiden - Heat 2

ZENITH HERO (5) produced a good 24.07 when filling a minor placing over 400m at this track last start. Has the ability and expected to go close again. NEW ERA BABY (4) did a good job to finish second last time out over 400m at this track (24.23) in a OR3, the second top-three finish on the trot. Can hit the frame this time. PRONTO MURTY (2) is better than last start when fourth (24.83) from Box 3 at this track over 400m. Will give the top chances plenty to think about. SHORT STORY (6) cannot be left out after placing last start.

Solid debut over 400m at this track when settled midfield but wound up nicely to finish third (24.34) and beaten 0.9 lengths. Tough assignment and place prospects appear best.

Finished fifth two starts ago then regained form last time out when he found one better over 400m in an A1 at this track. Put the writing on the wall last start so follow him up.

Form has been sound without winning, placing at his last three starts, the latest when third (24.29) over 400m at this track. Yet to win but has been in the placings five times from this draw. Worth thought.
