Nowra Race 8 - F&N Trophies
CREEPING CHOICE (1) boasts strong form at this course and distance having won two times from three starts. Scored by 5.5 lengths last time (20.68) in a Grade 5 over 365m at this track. Has the ability and should feature. HOT SPARK (6) has hit the frame at 10 of 31 starts and has won two of last three, the latest scoring (20.42) over 365m at this track. Rates a winning chance on best. FORTY'S GIRL (8) is a sprinter who excels over the short dashes. Last start was seventh over 520m at this track in a Grade 5 (30.81) but sharper trip suits this time. Solid record here at this trip including eight wins. Key runner on best form. KUNG FU BAY (2) comes off a big run when finishing third in a slick 20.72 last time. Has claims on that run.
