FOUR RUNNERS ON TONIGHTS HOVE CARD!
Note: MIST OF TIME has been withdrawn from the A6 at 8-02 and is a Non-Runner!
Saturday 13th June 2015 – HOVE Runners
Viscount Rambler is useful on his day and pops up when least expected! His chance in the A3 at 9-07 will be boosted with the drop in grade!
Granson Luca has not found things easy since making his return, from injury, in May but he gets a drop in grade for the A10 at 9-41.
Independent Jack – 12/1 winner on Hove debut!
Norah was confident that Independent Jack would find plenty of improvement when purchasing the August 13 son of Kinloch Brae for the Racing Club! But the good looking ‘brindle’ sprang a surprise when winning at 12/1 on his Hove debut last Saturday! He is up in grade for the A5 at 9-57.
Causeiloveyou steps back up to 515 metres for the A5 at 10-13. The July 12 son of College Causeway has competed in a couple of sprints since making his return from injury!

FOUR RUNNERS ON THE SUNDAY LUNCH-TIME HOVE CARD!
Sunday 14th June 2015 – HOVE Runners
Cellini hasn’t been beaten far on her last two runs and would have gone closer without the crowding she suffered and slow starts she made! She would have a good chance if getting a clear run in the D2 Sprint at 11-57.
Cause Of Justice is a decent sort and the January 12 son of College Causeway will appreciate the drop in grade for the A3 at 12-12.
Baby Gold – Gets a drop in grade!
Baby Gold had a ‘rough ride’ on her Hove debut last Saturday and the February 13 daughter of Droopys Scolari gets a drop in grade for the A6 at 12-58.
Data Olly – Also gets a drop in grade!
Data Olly has won 3 of his last 6 races but he blew his chance last Friday when making a slow start! The June 13 son of Head Bound is given a drop in grade for the A5 at 1-12.
Runners
CELLINI, CAUSE OF JUSTICE, BABY GOLD, DATA OLLY
