Darwin Race 8

Old Mates Bakery Dash Division1

Prize Money: $1,925

EXTRA PINEAPPLE (8) looks close to win after hitting the frame last run (22.43) at this track in a Grade 4/5. Has first look at box 8 this time. Has never been out of the money in four starts this distance. Rates highly and will give a great sight. BART'S CHANCE (7) was game in defeat at the latest run, finishing second and beaten a nose (22.58) behind TERRITORY MAN at this track. Overdue and is among the main hopes. SO NAIVE (1) stuck on well last time to finish a neck back in third (22.59) at this track in a Grade 5 /MDN over 383m. Expected to be in this for a long way. TERRITORY GIRL (2) was well supported last time but could only manage second (18.76), beaten a nose. Well-placed to take this out.

Did a good job two starts back at this track to win by 3.5 lengths in 18.09, beating Territory Girl. Last start finished last on July 5 over 383m at this track behind Territory Tuff beaten 10 lengths (23.09) in a Grade 4/5. Hard to envisage a win.

Good performance to win by a nose at this track over 383m (22.57) beating Bart's Chance in Grade 5 /MDN on July 5. Not likely to feature on this occasion.

Needs to do more than recent efforts, the latest a seventh over 537m at this track. Other runners look much more appealing.

Placed last time (22.58) at this track in a Grade 5 /MDN, finishing second and beaten a nose. Fairly consistent record from the draw including a win and five minors. Has ability and looks a key chance.
