Mount Gambier Race 2

Commercial Hotel Stake Pr1 Division1

Prize Money: $1,515

CAPTAIN DEMI (6) has been beaten for early speed lately, last time finishing fourth (23.52) in a Other at Gawler. Has a good record at this journey. Yet to win out of this box but has been in the placings three times from five starts. Ready to return to form. CURDIEVALE RHODE (1) jumped from this box last time and also the same course and distance when a 2.5 lengths third (18.41) in a Grade 6. Safe beginner and drawn well on the inside. Has the ability and looks a key chance. GNOME TO BURN (4) turned spotting a big start finishing fifth (18.81) last time in a TG1-4W at this track. Good beginner but will need a little luck from a middle draw. Can figure in the finish. SHADOWS TO BURN (2) missed the placings here last start but is well-placed to make amends.

Showed good improvement when third behind Pate Biscuit at this track last start over 305m (18.41). Gets back so might need a bit of luck.

Has finished fifth at this circuit at the last two appearances, most recently when beaten 7 lengths behind Afterglow Girl over 305m. Capable of taking this out.

Was out of placings last time (23.52) at Gawler in a Other, finishing fourth and beaten 8 lengths. Yet to win but has placed three times from this draw. Looks a key chance on best form.
