Murray Bridge Straight Race 6

First National Real Estate Murray Bridge Stake Pr2

Prize Money: $1,060

SAILAWAY BUDDY (2) scored (19.66) last time out at Angle Park adding to an already respectable career. Strike rate this distance strong having won four of seven tries. Has a very good strike-rate from this draw, with three wins from three starts. Can make it two on the bounce. RUSSO (7) has been close to a win, finishing in the minors three on end before a sixth when checked in the run last time in a TG1-4W at this track (17.18). Better than latest and worth another try. BONMATI (8) had second look this course and distance latest and improved on her time, finishing a 3.5 lengths second in 17.06. Top run latest and can measure up here. CATCHING (1) can finish much closer after missing a cheque at this track last start.

Was prominent from the outset and held on well to win at Angle Park over 342m in 19.66 last start, beating Ouzo And Coke. Yet to be beaten in three starts out of this box. Sure to go well.

Good effort at double-figure odds last time when third (17.24) over 300m at this track. Tricky draw to overcome. Has to do a bit more.

Well supported here last start but failed to deliver, finishing finished last on July 8 over 300m at this track behind Sunset Chaser beaten 7 lengths (17.18) in a TG1-4W. Placed two back at this track. Had been in strong form, hitting the frame three times on end, before the latest effort. Can atone.
