Cambridge Race 3

COPRICE WORKING DOG FAMILY STAKES PBD

Prize Money: $5,455

HOOKED ON JAZZ (4) was game in defeat off a low draw at the latest outing, finishing second and beaten 1.75 lengths (26.31) behind Aces at this track. Can measure up this time. ORDER FOR BRAX (8) turned in a better run last time to find a minor placing (26.57) at this track behind Aces in a Class 1/2. Has the pace to be prominent. Expected to feature again. FRUIT PARTY (3) missed the frame last time when fourth (26.59) at this track but prior to that had two placings in a row. Worth another chance. KOOKABURRA BOB (5) can finish much closer after missing a cheque at this track last start. Usually very slow to jump but runs home powerfully in this grade.

Could only manage fourth last time but placed two on end prior to that, the latest when second (26.56) over 457m at this track. Is a danger.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage eighth last time out over 457m at this track. Shouldn't trouble the top few hopes.
