The Norah Mac Racing Clubs Hanover Lady is getting fitter with every run and will appreciate the Trap 1 draw in the D2 at 11-11.

Our kennel has half the field in the A7 at 11-57. Graiguenoe Royal is a consistent performer and is running well. Sizzlers Magpie has good early pace but has not been getting home and Release The Ace has good form at this level but was a beaten favourite on his latest run!

SATURDAY HOVE REPORT
Saturday 30th August HOVE Report
Judicial Babe ran well enough on her return from seasonal rest. Showing good early pace she led to the run-in before tiring to finish 3rd in the A8 at 8-02 beaten only one and a quarter lengths by the Derek Knight trained winner Maui Lahaina. Judicial Babe was a 5/1 chance and clocked 30.87 sec. on the normal going.
Droopys Winnie had not been disgraced in a couple of Open Staying races recently and clocked her fastest time over the 695 metre trip at Hove when dropped in class for the S2 at 8-18. It was not good enough to win the race but the kennel will be pleased with the improvement shown as ‘Winnie’ finished in 3rd place four lengths behind the winner Janes Blaze who is trained by Doreen Walsh. 8/1 chance ‘Winnie clocked 42.36 (normal).
Our two runners in the A6 at 8-34 both got involved in first bend crowding. Coolscart Hawk was baulked on the run-up but our 10/1 shot ran on well to finish 2nd to the Seamus Cahill trained winner Myboy Lollipop. The ‘Hawk’ clocked 30.55 (normal) when beaten three and a quarter lengths by the winner. Avit On Beryl was more fancied at 2/1 but she was baulked at the first bend and clocked 30.95 (normal) a further five lengths back in 3rd.
Razldazl Clyde was made the 6/4 favourite for the D1 at 8-51 on his return to sprinting. After being baulked at the first bend he was unable to justify the odds and finished in 4th place clocking 16.80 (normal) two and a half lengths behind his old rival Call Me Millie who is trained by Dean Childs. Kennel mate Farloe Scolari was sent off a 20/1 shot but ran with credit clocking 16.90 (normal) when beaten three and a half lengths in 5th place.
Intayacynthia was added to the card as a late replacement for the withdrawn Westmead Celt and ran in the A4 at 9-07. Things didn’t work out for her as she was slow away and crowded at 1/4 mark before clocking 31.00 (normal) finishing in 6th place over eight lengths behind the Doreen Walsh trained winner Old Steine.
Our next two runners Avite Becky in the A7 and Causeiloveyou in the A3 were both involved in trouble at the first bend in their respective races and were both well beaten. Avite Becky was badly baulked and pushed wide in the A7 at 9-41 and although our 5/2 shot finished in 3rd place she was beaten thirteen lengths by the Seamus Cahill trained winner Who Needs Pace. ‘Becky’ clocked 31.45 on the normal going.
Causeiloveyou was involved in a similar situation in the A3 at 10-13 when he was badly baulked at the first bend. He was beaten over fourteen lengths in 6th place clocking 31.65 (normal) behind the Claude Gardiner trained winner Britania Rachel.
Satellite Fever was crowded at the first bend in the A2 at 10-30. He clocked 30.69 (normal) when beaten four and three quarter lengths by the Ken Tester trained winner Ardbeg Blitz and finished in 3rd place.
