Nowra Race 6

Ladbrokes Quick Multi

Prize Money: $1,575

TOWERING EARL (1) has a strong record this journey here with four wins and a minor from seven starts. Hit the frame latest (29.80) when third at this track in a NG. Has the ability and looks a key chance here. ASHBY COLA (2) has some solid form under his belt and proved too strong last time to win by 1.75 lengths at this track in a handy 29.98 beating ASHBY GNOCCHI. Recorded the quickest time on the card last start. Leading chance again. FORTY'S GIRL (6) is worth forgiving for her last effort when fourth (30.25) at this track over 520m. Worth another chance. ASHBY GNOCCHI (7) was a shade disappointing when in the placings as favourite last start – worth including.

In the money last time at this track (29.80) in a NG, finishing a 2.5 lengths third. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed three times. Makes strong appeal.

Good performance to win by 1.75 lengths at this track over 520m (29.98) beating Ashby Gnocchi in NG on August 16. That last win was in the quickest time on the card. Stick with him.

Was out of placings last time (25.22) at Goulburn in a Grade 5, finishing sixth and beaten 8 lengths. Yet to win but has placed three times from this draw. Looks suited here and can measure up on best.

Last start finished sixth over 340m at Bulli, beaten 6 lengths (19.72) behind Hovering in a Grade 4/5 on August 18. Shouldn't trouble the top few hopes.

Showed good improvement when second behind Ashby Cola at this track last start over 520m (30.10). Gets back so might need a bit of luck.
