Darwin Race 3

Sign City Dash Division1

Prize Money: $2,095

BEAR THE BRUNT (1) has hit the frame at 11 of 27 starts and has won two of last three, the latest scoring (18.07) over 312m at this track. Has a strong record here including three wins. Has the inside draw and looks tough to beat. SLICK CHANCE (2) was in the placings last time but prior to that produced a swift 25.91 win over 457m at Temora. Expected to feature on best figures. RESILIENT (6) jumped well from the low draw and led all the way to score last start (22.15) at this track in a Grade 3/4 over 383m. Has hit winning form and can measure up again. SLIPPERY WITCH (8) will need to run right up to last start to feature again.

Won two starts back when well in the market at Temora over 457m. Last start finished 3rd in a Grade 3/4 on June 3 over 383m at this track behind Resilient beaten 6 lengths (22.58). Thereabouts at the last couple. Suited here and likely to run well.

Scored by 0.8 lengths last time (18.50) in a Grade 1/2 over 312m at this track. Goes very well from the draw boasting two victories and five places from 14 starts. Has ability and should be around the money.
