Darwin Race 4

SIGN CITY DASH Division1

Prize Money: $2,095

RITZA DUANE (2) is a well performed dog who recorded his 15th career win last time out at this track (22.02). Hard to go past form here at this journey. Ran one of the fastest times on the program in his latest win. Has put together a string of wins and expected to go close again. STAN'S DREAM (8) is a capable type and proved too strong last time to win by 5 lengths at this track in a handy 21.73 beating BRAVE EMBER. Winner at his latest appearance in the quickest time on the card. Hard to fault his form and he makes plenty of appeal. NORA'S BOY (1) has a strong overall record having 29 wins and 60 places from 133 starts but was out of the money last time when fourth (22.29) over 383m at this track. Solid record at the distance winning 19 races. Super consistent and can feature with the right run. BRAVE EMBER (7) ran good time (22.06) when second last start over 383m at this track, the second placing in a row.

In hot form winning his last four on end, the latest pinging the lids with a fast early split and clocking 22.02 over 383m at this track. Flying lately and can score again.

Did a good job two starts back at this track to win by 1.3 lengths in 22.30, beating Miss Shylock. Last start finished last in a OPEN on March 15 over 312m at this track behind Luka Magic beaten 7 lengths (18.45). Can't recommend against this lot.

Good effort to win last start by 2.5 lengths over 537m at this track in a handy (31.44), beating Zipping Kimble. Will find this a bit tougher, prepared to risk this time.

Racing well without winning, filling the minors at his last five starts, the latest when third (18.04) at this track. Drawn awkwardly. Has to do a bit more.

Solid performance to win by 2 lengths at this track over 312m (18.27) beating Chronic in Grade 4/5 on March 15. Shouldn't trouble the top few hopes.
