Mountaineer Park Race 6

Allowance Optional Claiming

Prize Money: $28,531

AMOUR DE LA VIE (2) is a progressive type still in first campaign but off to a great start to career. Already a two time winner including last start when scoring by 1.5 lengths over 1006m at this track (Dirt). Key chance and expected to go close. SPUNS KITTEN (3) showed good early dash at the first run after a spell last time out and led for most of the way before being claimed and finishing 2 lengths away in second over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Well-placed and will take running down. BUTTERFLY EFFECT (5) made progress last time out, finishing 2.75 lengths from the winner in second at the end of 1106m at this track. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. SHULER GRAY (6) fought on for third last start over 1106m at this track (Dirt), beaten 4 lengths to add to some fine recent form. Suitably placed so anticipating a big run this time.

Comes off a 42 day let-up. Most recently ran last of 7 at this track on July 15 over 1207m, 69 len behind Good Holiday carrying 54.5kg at $17.30. Before that won by 2.5 len at Mountaineer Park Turf on July 5 over 1609m defeating Mark Of Greatness with 52kg at $4.60. This looks too tough.

Previously second-up 5th of 9 at this track on May 18 2025 over 1006m, 7 len behind Zen Nation with 52.5kg at $33.40. Fitter for recent racing and is a winning hope.
