Sunderland Bags Race 11 - £10 Summer Winning Deal

MUST BE GOOD (5) has missed the frame the last couple but just a few runs back pushed the clock when winning over 261m at this track, taking a D3 in a handy 15.89. Has the ability and expected to go close again. DISTANT BARBIE (4) has shown good improvement at her last two starts, finishing in the money last time when 3rd at this track over 261m. Goes well out of this box with a win and five minor placings. Expected to feature. SLEEPY BALE (6) filled a minor placing last start at this track behind Tromora Puma (16.16) in a D3. Although beaten ran one of the quickest times on the card last start. Winning chance. TOONARMY PIPPIN (1) is worth another chance despite missing the top-three here most recently.
