Darwin Race 5

Old Mates Bakery Dash Division1

Prize Money: $1,325

DIRTY DANCING (7) turned in a better run last time to find a minor placing (18.34) at this track behind Our Girl Franky in a Grade 5 /MDN. Good form should continue. SILVERSMITH (5) doesn't win out of turn but recent form sound. Has finished in the placings two on end now, the latest when third (18.50) at this track. Can measure up. LAWN KEEPER (1) has missed the frame at his last two but did run well three back when third (18.41) in a Grade 4/5 at this track. Can find the frame this time. SKY BY NIGHT (2) won from box 2 last start – sure to figure prominently.
