Mount Gambier Race 10

Gordon Refrigeration Stake Pr1 Division2

Stake: $1,771

SMART OPERATOR (2) shapes as hard to beat after winning last start over the 400m at this track in a speedy 23.26. Should be in this for a long way. LIE TO ME (8) turned in a strong run last time, placing in a Grade 4/5 when second behind Imposter in a quick 23.22 and setting a new course and distance PB. In form and looks a leading player again. CADILLAC RAGTOP (4) is a speedy runner who can find the front with a clear break. Latest effort finished 4th over 400m at this track beaten 8 lengths (23.45) behind Imposter in a Grade 4/5 on April 13. Can feature in the finish. WILD MILLY (6) was in the money last start and likely to feature again.

Comments

Form has been solid with minor placings at her last five starts. Last time out finished last in a Special conditions race on March 2 over 680m at Murray Bridge behind Vodka And Ice beaten 13 lengths (40.47). Forget the latest effort. Among the chances.

Comments

Flew the lids with a fast early split last time, hitting the frame with a 5 length second (23.22) over 400m at this track and making it two placings on end. Although unsuccessful last time still ran one of the quickest times on the card. Stick with him.
