Saturday 13th December HOVE Runners

We have two runners lining up for the opening D2 Sprint at 7-31. On Your Lonesome has been trapping well but must avoid trouble in running! Where as slow starts have not helped the Racing Clubs Classy Molly on her last three outings!

Swift Messi (Lionel)

Swift Messi  –  Looking for his 24th win!

The incredible Swift Messi is in action again! Winning 23 of his 152 races which include an amazing 48 second places the veteran was only narrowly beaten on his last two runs! Sure to run another big race in the D2 at 8-02.

Sizzlers Big Boy is up in grade for his latest win where he came from last to first! Connections will be hoping he can follow up that win in the A8 at 8-18.

Things have to go just right for you in a Sprint but Zara Two and Glenvale Stevie should have every chance if getting clear runs in the D1 at 9-24.
