Sunderland Bags Race 9 - Friday Night Winning Deal @ Sunderland Dogs Stakes
MOONVEEN HIJACK (2) jumped cleanly from the low draw gave a big sight to finish second and beaten 1.75 lengths (28.16) at this track in an A5 over 450m. Leading chance again. COOLOGUE GONZO (1) missed the frame latest when fifth at this track (28.72) but scored three back at this track (28.10). Will give the top chances plenty to think about. ROMANTIC JAKE (5) jumped from this trap and placed in an A5 at this track over 450m latest (27.95). Has a consistent record off this same box, including a win and one minors. Has the ability and looks a key chance. FERNDALE BUCKO (3) is heading the right way. In the minors two back with a third then scored by 1.5 lengths in an A6 last time at this track over 450m (28.18). Tackles tougher grade here but in form and looks a contender again.

In the money at this track at his last couple of starts, most recently finishing second over 450m. Won't find this any harder. Hard to beat with even luck.

Unplaced two runs back then made impressive progress last time to be beaten just 0.6 lengths into third over 450m at this track. Cannot be taken lightly based on that sound recent effort.
