Romford Race 8 - Gbgb Track Of The Year Stakes

VELVET MURILLO (1) was rewarded for his honesty after four minors on end with a deserved win last time, scoring at Romford over 400m (24.89). Makes plenty of appeal if runs up to latest. BLAZEAWAY BLUE (6) followed a minor placing two runs ago with a plain effort last time to finish fifth, beaten 6 lengths, in an A6 at Romford over 400m (24.86). Suited this easier class and looks a leading player on best. YOUNG APACHE (3) followed a unplaced effort at Romford two back with a sound third, beaten 8 lengths, last start in an A6 at Romford over 400m (25.34). No surprise to see him back in winning form. RURAL BLUEY (2) followed an A6 win two back with a fifth, beaten 8 lengths, in an A6 at Romford over 400m (25.16) last time. Deserves another chance this easier class.
