Port Pirie Race 4

'The Radiant' October 10 Pace

Prize Money: $3,500

TIGER ROARS (1) worked to find the lead and kept kicking only to find one better last start over 1800m at Globe Derby Park, making it two minor placings on the bounce. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Has the class to find the winners' list. ELLA KATE (3) put the writing on the wall two runs ago then improved further at her latest appearance when she scored by 1.2 metres over 2050m at this track. Likely to get all the favours from this nice draw and has to be included in calculations. BUSTNLOOSE (4) last appeared when fourth over 2050m here 12 weeks ago. Look out for any positive market movement. HELLO BEAUTIFUL (2) is worth another chance after a last-start seventh over 1790m at Mildura four days ago. Capable of sharp improvement.

Solid performance when beaten by 1.2 m finishing second after being driven well back, behind Ella Kate at this track over 2050m on July 28 at $17. Then a handy effort when beaten by 3.5 m finishing second behind Luna Rocks at Globe Derby Park over 1800m on August 3 at $3. Winning claims.

Backs up 4 days after failing to impress last start; 7th (Sr1) over 1790m at Mildura beaten 70 m by Don Crunch (2:11.40) on August 7 at $34. Showed ability the run before when she posted a big 4.5 m win (Fr3) at Globe Derby Park (2:17.00) beating Mickthebestbutcher in 4yo on July 27 at $3.70. Bold showing expected.

Resuming after 12 weeks off the scene. Finished off last preparation when fourth after a quick start, behind After The Chase at this track over 2050m on May 19 at $7.50. Should be right there at the business end.

Last start 6th (Sr2) over 1790m at Mildura beaten 40 m by Kyoretsu (2:12.10) on July 31 at $19. Two runs back won by 1.5 m after showing early speed, (Fr1) at Globe Derby Park (2:15.50) beating Shemeansbusiness in on July 20 at $2.90 at the bell was leading 1.8. This looks a far sterner task.

Returns from the paddock. At the latest first-up run 6th (Fr5) over 1609m at this track, beaten 35 m by Keep Betting (2:03.60) on December 9 at $3.70. Probably needs this hit-out.
