Sheffield Bags Race 3 - The Poppy Clegg Bates Stakes
APOLLO YOUNGBLUD (5) was well in the market last time but only managed fourth (16.49), beaten 3.5 lengths. Finished second the start before. Can bounce back. SAVANA ETNA (3) last start finished 3rd over 480m at this track beaten 7 lengths (28.47) behind Aero Noduff in a IV on October 18. Looks suited here and can measure up. MOSSEND MAGIC (2) won again and recorded an impressive time to make it two on the bounce, scoring by half a length (16.39) at this track over 280m. Boasts a strong record from this draw with four wins and three minor placings from 10 starts. Sure to be thereabouts. ELEGANT JET (6) scored from this box last start so keep him in mind.

In the money two back then disappointed when he finished 4th in a D2 on September 18 over 280m at this track behind March On Kit beaten 3.5 lengths (16.49). Was in the money two on end before missing the frame last time. Worth another try.

Missed the placings three back but unbeaten in two runs since, the latest claiming a D3 in 16.45 over 280m at this track. Solid chance with even luck.
