Nowra Race 8

Grnsw Middle Distance Series

Prize Money: $10,500

INTREPID EAGLE (6) has a strong record here with five wins and two placings from eight starts. Recorded a one length win (36.62) in a Grade 4/5 last time at this track. Makes strong appeal on best. ASHBY GNOCCHI (1) has a strong winning strike-rate over this track and trip with two wins and a placing from four tries. Scored by 4.5 lengths last time (36.46) in a Grade 4/5 over 630m at this track. Looks a key chance on best figures. GRAMERCY GARRY (7) is a talented dog who is a winner of 14 races and filled a minor placing latest when third at Richmond (35.72). Goes very well here at the trip finding the frame in each of seven starts. Ran one of the fastest times on the program last start despite finishing in the minors. Hard to beat again. ZIPPING HOPKINS (2) hasn't been far away, finishing in the money twice in a row including last time in a NG at Wentworth Park over 520m.

Improved two runs back to score then won again last start over 630m at this track (36.46), beating Skedaddle Louise. Looks to have an edge on most of these.

Was among the placegetters latest at Wentworth Park when a 1.5 lengths third but did clock a head turning 29.67 over the 520m journey. Should be in this for a long way.

Hit the frame at Wentworth Park last time when a 0.8 lengths second but did record a scintillating 29.42 for the 520m journey. Harder here and one for the multiples.

Hit the ground running last time with a fast early split and never headed, leading throughout to win by one length (36.62) over 630m at this track. Strong form emerging from the that last run. Leading chance.
