Romford Bags Race 4 - 1975 - The Romford Puppy Cup Began
GOTHIC DOLL (1) rocketed out of the boxes with a scorching early sectional but gathered in and finished in the minors when second (29.65) at Central Park over 491m. Capable of going well again. SPARKLING KERENA (2) goes very well this course and distance starting 37 times for 13 wins and 11 minors. In the money last time at this track (24.76) in an A5, finishing a head second. Can hit the frame with the right run. HIGHWAY BULLET (6) was a last start winner (24.37) at this track who is building a strong winning record. Boasts two wins from five starts out of this box. Sure to be thereabouts. THREAD OF HOPE (3) placed when heading the market last time - cannot be ignored.

Finished second last time at this track (24.76) in an A5, beaten a head. Strong record at this track and trip with 13 wins and 11 placings from 37 starts. With a clean break looks hard to beat.

Form has been steadily improving. Last start finished second over 400m at this track in 24.64 behind Castillo Del Rey. Has run blistering time here with a 24.14 PB at the distance. Must include if he recaptures that form.

Not seen at best last start when she finished last over 400m at this track beaten 11 lengths (25.03) behind My Lil Bella in an A5 on October 31. Happy enough to dismiss in this field.

Good performance after tracking the speed to score in an A7 by 5 len at this track over 400m (24.37). Winner last time and looks well placed again. Worth following up.
