Bunbury Race 8

Breathe Accounting Ms Trot

Prize Money: $9,360

PATCHED (4) made it two in succession last start when he got the cash by a head over 2503m at Gloucester Park. Ideally placed and is sure to prove tough to beat. LUVAFLAIR (3) finished fourth last start, beaten 11 metres at Gloucester Park over 2130m. Capable of playing a major role so has to be respected. THATS NOT MY GAIT (6) ended last prep with a second at Gloucester Park over 2536m. Capable of a forward showing while fresh. LOTS OF CHANGE (5) ended last prep with a fourth at Shepparton over 2190m ten weeks ago. Use the market as your best guide.

Seven-year-old entire showed improvement last time. Was driven from back in the field when 3rd (Fr5) over 1684m at Pinjarra, beaten 24 m by Kvintet Hill (2:04.70) in NR up to 70 on April 21 at $20. The run before was not as impressive when well beaten into fourth behind Patched at Gloucester Park over 2503m in a NR 70 or better on April 18 at $31. Will find this tough.

Well beaten last start by Patched, a rival who he faces again; when 25 metres fifth at Gloucester Park over 2503m in a NR 70 or better race on April 18. Needs some luck.
