We head to the capital for our Tuesday tip, where the afternoon action at Romford features a bitch in the form of her life. In the 16:34 (Race 8), Two Sterling steps up to A1 grade, and all the signs suggest she is ready for the challenge.
Two Sterling has been a model of consistency recently, and from her favored inside berth, she looks the one to beat in this top-grade contest.

Racing Record & Form
Two Sterling boasts an impressive strike rate of 35%, having won 7 of her 20 career starts. She arrives here fresh off a dominant victory.
- Last Run (22nd Nov): She destroyed an A2 field, showing “Early Pace” to lead by the third bend and winning comfortably in 24.09s.
- Speed: Her personal best came back in October when she clocked a blistering 23.64s over this course and distance. That kind of clock stops almost anything at Romford.
- Consistency: She has finished 1st or 2nd in 4 of her last 5 races, proving she is a reliable proposition for punters.
The Race Analysis: 16:34 A1 Grade (400m)
This is the top grade (A1), but the setup heavily favors her.
- The Draw: She runs from Trap 1, which is gold dust at Romford. The track profile notes that “Traps 1 and 3 have a good record,” and she is a natural railer who loves to hug the paint.
- The Tactics: The race comments suggest she is “Likely to be in rear early,” but her recent form contradicts this; she flashed “Early Pace” in her last win. If she traps on terms, her inside line gives her the shortest route to the first bend.
- Trainer Form: The Simpson kennel is flying, operating at a massive 28.57% strike rate over the last 21 days.
Verdict: A fast winner in A2 last time, well-drawn in Trap 1, and trained by the most in-form kennel in the race. She ticks every box.
