Hove Bags Race 10 - Race 10

MY TINY TRAINER (3) boxed on well to finish second last time, beaten a neck (30.37) behind Punk Rock Harley at this track. Top chance in this line up. YOUGO FINN (4) finished in the minors last start over the 500m at this track but ran a solid 29.83 last start. In form and looks a leading player again. OWER SMASHER (2) tends to take a while to wind up, running on to place two back before spotting a start latest and finishing on strongly into second (30.01) in an A5 at this track. Form here sound including 12 wins. Leading player again. MERTONABY LAD (6) is down a grade after finishing fourth two starts back at this track then was again out of the placings at his latest appearance in an A4 at this track over 500m (30.73). Deserves another chance this class.
