Romford Race 9 - Keith Arnold Happy 68Th Birthday Race
YOUNG KERRY (1) has missed the frame at her last couple but wasn't beaten far three back when second (24.63) at Romford in an A8. Key player on best and worth another chance. SPARKLING KERENA (2) boasts a strong record this journey with six wins and three minors from 17 tries. Below best last time at Romford (25.55) in an A8, finishing a 10 length sixth. Can feature with the right run. CLASHEEN DIOR (6) turned in a better effort at Romford last start, finishing third behind Express Tag (25.29) in an A9. Settled off speed and worked to the line nicely. Can measure up. BEAR ESSENTIAL (5) will need to repeat last run to feature.

Showed a hot pace early and stuck on well despite missing the frame, finishing fifth Romford in 25.11. Should prove hard to beat.

Good performance after tracking the speed to score in an A10 by head at Romford over 400m (24.90). Among the chances and worth following up.

Finished third last start over 400m at Romford behind Express Tag in an A9. Worked home well on that occasion and should be closing well again. Has ability and worth including.
