Gosford Race 8

Ontrack Insider

Prize Money: $3,315

GREAT CHAT (7) has a strong winning strike-rate here with two wins and a placing from four tries. Below best last time at this track (30.05) in a Grade 4/5, finishing a 5 length fourth. Rates on top and should go close. SAINT RICO (2) jumped from out wide and had a clear run, crossing to the lead and holding on for a placing when second (30.05) at Wentworth Park in a Mix 3/4 over 520m. Expected to feature again. SUNBURNT KEEPER (1) turned in a modest effort most recently when fifth at The Gardens over 400m behind Ella Knows (23.49) in a Grade 5. Was in the money prior to that. Has a strong record out of this box with two wins and a minor placing from three starts. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. HURRY TUNCURRY (4) has top-three aspirations after placing last time.

Missed the frame last time but finished in the minors two back when third (23.13) over 400m at The Gardens. Has a fair record off the rails draw and is among the better hopes.

Showed strong pace early but found one better when a neck second over 520m Wentworth Park in 30.05. Well-performed from this draw. Key chance on best form.

Form has been solid with minor placings at his last four starts. Last time out finished 2nd over 515m at this track beaten 4 lengths (29.97) behind Raymar Shame in a Grade 4/5 on April 28. Form from this box is very strong including two wins. Winning hope with the right run.

Finished second at big odds last time (29.80) over 515m at this track. Squeeze draw to overcome. Prefer others.

Last couple of starts have been ordinary but he does have good record over this track and distance. Has a very good strike-rate out of box 7, scoring two times. Go close.
