Darwin Race 5

WINNING EDGE DASH Division1

Prize Money: $1,825

BRAVE EMBER (7) is an accomplished sprinter with a great record at the short dashes. Scored over 312m at this track last time in a OPEN (17.81). Has a good record here at this journey including 11 wins. Has performed well from this box with a win and five minor placings to her name from nine starts. The hardest to beat again. HONEST JAN (2) missed the frame latest (18.27) when fourth over 312m at this track in a OPEN. Among the main chances.

Comments

Comes off a (17.84) win last time, scoring by 8 lengths in a Grade 4 over 312m at this track. Goes very well from the draw boasting five victories and nine places from 20 starts. With even luck and a clean start should be thereabouts.

Talented type with an excellent strike rate at this journey. Has been prominent in the run and duly saluted at her last couple, most recently over 312m at this track in a handy 17.81 beating Zero Control. Flying lately and can score again.

Very consistent performer who in his last outing was finished 2nd over 312m at this track beaten 5.5 lengths (18.17) behind Brave Ember in a OPEN on May 24. Will not find this easy. Not keen.
