Gosford Race 8

Happy Retirement Greg

Prize Money: $3,110

VITO'S POOLISH (1) was out of the placings last time but shapes well for this on her sharp win a few runs back, getting around this track over 515m in 29.58. Smart win three back and looks a key chance here. DOOLEY'S CHAMP (3) was safely held last time out, finishing sixth at The Gardens over 515m behind Smooth White (30.44) in a Grade 5. Likely to play a prominent role. BLUE SUE (8) turned spotting a big start finishing fifth (30.57) last time in a Grade 4/5 at this track. The form from her last run stacks up well. Has ability and is one of the better chances. BLACK TIGER (2) placed last time out so worth considering.

Missed the frame last start when a 2.25 lengths fourth (29.98) at Wentworth Park. Previous form sound including a win three back at this track. Better than last run and looks set to run well.

Consistent performer who is new here. Nice win last start by a nose at Wentworth Park (42.57) beating Scatter Dunn in a Grade 5 on July 10. In winning form and can measure up again.

Could only manage seventh last time but the start prior hit the frame at double figure odds when second (30.19) over 520m at Wentworth Park. Has to overcome a wide draw but can measure up.
