Mount Gambier (G) Race 1

Christmas Challenge Mixed Feature Pr1 Division1

Stake: $3,300

TAPPET (2) had been in super honest form hitting the frame two times on end before finishing fourth (34.88) at The Meadows last time. Has performed well from this box with a win and two minor placings to his name from four starts. Ready to return to form. RINGER'S GIRL (1) is better than last start when sixth (30.19) from Box 6 at this track over 512m. Key player if finds best. BLUE PHOENIX (7) ran fourth in a Special conditions race last time, copping a check in the run and finishing 11 lengths from the winner over 600m at this track. Has two wins from Box 7. May be worth another try. TIME AFTER TIME (4) should be thereabouts.

Missed the frame latest (34.88) when fourth over 600m at The Meadows in a Restricted WIN H. Goes very well from the draw boasting one victory and two places from four starts. Has ability and should feature.

Was out of the placings last time but the start prior finished in the minors when third (44.18) over 730m at Angle Park. Boxed awkwardly but can measure up.

Missed the frame last time but was in the minors two on end prior to that, the most recent when third (35.46) at big odds over 600m at this track. Tough draw to overcome and appears tested on latest effort.

Missed the frame last start when fourth and beaten 11 lengths at this track. Form solid prior to that including a win at this track three back. Could pose a serious challenge if finds best this time.
