Romford Race 1 - ROMFORD Saturday Night 18Th April 2026 PGR Meeting

STORMTROOPER (5) flew the lids from trap five with a sensational turn of foot before finishing second (24.44) and beaten 4 lengths over 400m at Romford. Top chance in this line up. JOANIEDATORTOISE (4) has been out of the placings last two but prior to that produced a strong 24.31 win over 400m at Romford. Expected to feature on best figures. FINBARRS LAUGH (3) returned a better run last time, finishing in the money (24.65) at Romford behind Haverhill Ellie in an A4. Has the pace to be prominent. Can feature again. HARLEY HITCH (6) is down a grade after finishing fifth two starts back at Romford then was again out of the placings at her latest appearance in an A3 at Romford over 400m (24.72). Can bounce back this company.

Showed blistering pace early and gave a sight but gathered in and finished third over 400m Romford in 24.27. Can't recommend in this field.

Flew the lids with a sizzling early split but found one better when clocking 24.65 over 400m at Romford. Looks a solid hope.

Big odds last time but gave a huge sight after a scorching early split, weakening late to finish a 6 length fourth (24.74) over 400m at Romford. Thereabouts at the last couple. Suited here and likely to run well.
