20:07 HOVE: BRUNSWICK BULLET (Trap 6)
Brunswick Bullet (6) emerged as the standout performer in last week's Maiden Trophy heats and is poised to reaffirm his dominance in the final at 20:07. Trainer Belinda Green’s runner may not excel in early speed, but the outside trap is expected to work in his favour, particularly with Rapido Veinte (5) favouring the middle lanes. If Brunswick Bullet can handle the first turn smoothly, his strong Irish form—especially his 600-yard runs against Da Bold Falcon at Shelbourne—makes him a formidable opponent to beat.
20:24 HOVE: CANDOLIM MONSOON (Trap 3)
The Dual Distance final at 20:24 presents a slightly tougher challenge, but Candolim Monsoon (3), who posted the fastest time in the shorter 500m heats, looks set to take the lead. Known for his Sussex Cup victory last year, Candolim Monsoon is well-suited to the 515m trip and should maintain his position before moving inside. His kennelmate, Clona Uriel (5), narrowly missed out on a win last week but faces a difficult draw tonight. While Clona Uriel poses a significant threat, Burrows Trigger (4), with his rapid start, might create some early trouble.
20:59 HOVE: AVARUA TIMMY (Trap 2)
In the 20:59 Maiden Sprint, Avarua Timmy (2) stands out as the logical choice after a strong showing behind the in-form Bingo Bullet last week. Though Bingo Bullet will test the form earlier in the night, Richard Rees’ Avarua Timmy holds a clear advantage over his primary rival, Sporting Bafta (1), particularly in four-bend races—Avarua Timmy competes at an A1 level, while Bafta races in A8. Despite Seamus Cahill’s runner clocking a fast trial recently, he struggled to maintain that form in a D1 race last week, making Avarua Timmy the likely favourite for this event.
