Scolari Sound can regain the winning thread in the semi-finals of the Bresmed Northern Sprint over 280 metres at Sheffield tonight.
David Pruhs’ National Sprint Winner looked unlucky last week when crowded out at a vital point and is fancied to get first run on main dangers Suirside Leah and Bramble Bruno.
Walshes Hill who set the standard last week with 15.75sec, can take the second qualifier. Jimmy Wright’s runner has won six of his seven races this year and can soon be in control to beat Mac Foiche.
Target Harris, a 15.92sec heat winner, is fancied to carry the striped jacket to victory in the third qualifier.
Hayley Keightley’s runner can be hot or miss at the start but can hold too many guns for the likes of Cloncunny Ardera and Worsboro Spectre.
