Mount Gambier Race 6

Bucik Tyrepower Pace

Prize Money: $3,500

THE BLAZINBOOTS (2) settled in the leading division and finished well to finish third last start at Ballarat, making it four minor placings in a row. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Finds a nice race and can break through. EASTBRO MIKA (6) did a good job to finish third at Terang two runs ago then broke at her latest appearance at Horsham. Proven at this circuit and distance. She is in the right race to return to form. LUCKY VINCENT (5) has been racing in Victoria of late but has won at this circuit and distance before so this suits better. FRANKIE UNDER FIRE (4) should be at peak fitness and is a player off a last-start win by 1.5 metres at Stawell.

Last start 7th (Fr1) over 2180m at Kilmore was 7th-9.02 at the bell, beaten 13 m by Tophut Johny (2:44.30) on September 3 at $151. Two runs back 7th (Sr2) over 2195m at Ararat, at the bell was 5th-9 beaten 17 m by Missmalachite (2:48.00) on August 23 at $51. Not keen on his chances in this field.

Two back was beaten by 7 m finishing second after a quick start, behind Elleegant Lane at Melton over 1720m on September 25 at $2.90. Then a handy effort when beaten by 4.5 m finishing third after showing early speed, behind Our Pinup Girl at Ballarat over 1710m on October 1 at $4.33. Deserves a win and gets his chance from a low draw.

Hard to fault of late. Last start won by 1.5 m as favourite when driven back in the field, (Fr5) held up early, at Stawell (2:44.30) beating Margaritari in on September 14 at $2.20 at the bell was 3rd-1.8. Could go on with it.

Last start then managed to finish seventh over 2200m at Horsham last time out. Before that, a game effort when 3rd (Fr3) over 2180m at Terang was 3rd-10 at the bell, beaten 6 m by Yankee Rain (2:40.80) on September 28 at $9.50. Can bounce back.
