Romford Bags Race 9 - Roy Gray's 85Th Birthday Stakes
BRIGHT JEWEL (6) goes very well here starting 12 times for six wins and two minors. Below best last time at Central Park (41.07) in a OR, finishing a 10 length fifth. Has the ability and looks a key chance here. CAPEL ROSE (3) hit the ground running last start and was never headed (47.23) at this track in OR over 750m. Winner at her latest appearance in the quickest time on the card. Sure to be thereabouts. GOTHIC KITTY (5) turned in a better effort at this track last start, finishing second behind CAPEL ROSE (47.35) in a OR. Has the pace to be prominent. Although beaten ran one of the quickest times on the card last start. Leading player again. MILLBANK LILY (4) is a last-start placegetter from this box - solid claims again.

Unplaced two runs back then made impressive progress last time to finish third over 750m at this track. Cannot enthuse despite that better recent effort.

Turned in a better effort over 750m at this track last start, finishing second behind Capel Rose in a OR. Has the early speed to land on the pace and can stick on. Has run slick time here with a 47 PB at the distance. Go close.
