Great Chase (1-5 Wins) Ht4

Prize Money: $3,875

MEPUNGA GYPSY (2) struggled to get involved last start after drifting back at this track, but prior to that won by 2.5 lengths at The Meadows (30.27) beating Nancy Devere in a Grade 5 on September 19. Can discover winning form. HUGO ROSE (4) had been going along well winning a Grade 5 three back then placing at Warragul before missing the frame latest when fifth (26.19) at Warragul. Key player on best and worth another try. XARA NAVY (8) is going well, finishing in the placings twice in a row. Not beaten far last time when a half a length second (30.12) in a Grade 5 at this track. Rates a winning chance on best. FLYING ROYCE (3) cannot be underestimated.

Backs up after winning by 2.5 lengths at The Meadows (30.25) beating Neil The Seal in a Maiden FIN on September 26 four days ago. This is much harder assignment and she needs to find another gear.

Missed the frame last start when a 6 length fifth (26.19) at Warragul. Previous form sound including a win three back at this track. Looks a definite winning chance on best and given another chance.
