18:08 CRAYFORD: BALLYMAC JULIA (Trap 1)
At Crayford, BALLYMAC JULIA (Trap 1) is set to build on her impressive form following a seasonal break by taking the opening A3 contest at 18:08. Trainer Darren Whitton's dog has never been in better shape, delivering her best performances in her last three races. Her powerful back straight pace suggests she is ready to shine once again.
Although Ballymac Julia was narrowly defeated by Wicky Moe (Trap 4) two starts ago, that rival had an easy lead to the turn, a scenario less likely to repeat with the presence of the middle-running Droopys Sunbeam (Trap 2) on the inside.
19:16 CRAYFORD: BUTTS BLOSSOM (Trap 1)
BUTTS BLOSSOM (Trap 1) has shown steady improvement in her three starts since returning from a layoff in February. She can confirm her form against three of tonight’s competitors, whom she bested in her last outing in an A9 race at 19:16. Trainer Dean Childs' bitch has gradually strengthened, and her versatility in running style makes her a strong contender, whether breaking sharply or winning from off the pace.
20:31 CENTRAL PARK: HOLLYOAK BERMESE (Trap 2)
HOLLYOAK BERMESE (Trap 2) has shown consistent improvement in her four starts since returning from a seasonal rest and is poised to capture an A6 race at Central Park at 20:31. Although Ray Butler’s runner was overtaken near the finish last week, she still finished ahead of tonight’s rival, Rosstemple Luna (Trap 4), who continues to struggle with stamina issues.
Hollyoak Bermese's steady weight increase has coincided with better performances, addressing previous vulnerabilities in close finishes.
