Romford Bags Race 9 - Hrh Romford Retired Greyhounds

BEAR ESSENTIAL (5) is heading the right way. In the minors two back with a second then scored by half a length in an A10 last time at this track over 400m (24.63). In winning form and looks the one to beat again. HOLLYWOOD ATHENA (3) was big odds last time but gave a huge sight after a scorching early split, weakening late to finish a 0.6 lengths fourth (24.84) over 400m at this track. Comes through a solid form race last start. Likely to be thereabouts. DONEGAL CIAN (6) is down a grade after finishing fourth two starts back at this track then was again out of the placings at his latest appearance in an A8 at this track over 400m (30.23). This easier so not to be underestimated. HOLDING POLLY (1) is a last-start placegetter with solid claims again.

Started big odds last time but gave a huge sight after a sizzling early spilt before being grabbed late to finish third (24.98) at this track over 400m. Fair run last start but needs to improve further.

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 (24.84) at this track over 400m. Some good form is emerging from that last run.

Could only manage fifth last time out over 400m at this track, adding to some plain results of late. Needs to find a bit more to test these.
