Race 11

Prize Money: $729

MERTONABY GIGI (2) was well in the market last time but only managed fifth (30.46), beaten 5.5 lengths. Was in the money the start prior. Has ability and looks hard to stop. EMERS DASHA (4) has returned in good style. Scored an A4 win fresh then finished third, beaten 2.5 lengths, in an A4 at this track over 500m (30.10). Should enjoy this easier assignment. Expected to feature. TUONO DAVE (6) is better than last start when fourth (30.38) in an A4 at this track over 500m. Has a strong winning record here at this journey. Expected to feature in the finish. DROOPYS FAVOURIT (1) was out of the money here last time out but can bounce back.
