Bangor-Hollywood Slots Race 9 - Race 9 - 1609M
GEMSTONE PILLAR (1) comes off a solid 3rd at Plainridge over 1609m, beaten 2.75L after a strong 2nd at Cumberland the start prior, and looks well placed from the inside draw. MIDNIGHT ZETTE (5) was 4th at Cumberland last start, just 0.5L from the winner, and placed 3rd behind Amalie Hanover two runs back. FOMOR (4) has been around the mark with a string of midfield finishes, including a 5th at Cumberland last time out. CREATIVE ANGEL (6) and NORTHERN SKYWAY (7) both need to lift on recent efforts. HALLOFARIDE (8) was well beaten on debut. Gemstone Pillar (1) and Midnight Zette (5) appeal as the leading hopes based on recent form.
