Gunnedah Race 3

Ladbrokes Own Spring

Prize Money: $2,630

MICK THE MASTER (1) was below best last time at this track (19.76) in a NG, finishing a 2.5 lengths fourth. Has already won four times from this draw. Expected to go close. ROCK ARTIST (2) missed the frame latest when fifth at this track (19.76) but scored five back at this track (25.06). Has a good record here at this journey. Has the ability to give this a shake. ROYMAN (7) stalked the lead after a clean break from the tricky draw and went on to finish third (19.67) at this track in a NG over 340m. Ran one of the fastest times on the program last start despite finishing in the minors. Expected to feature again. PATCHY RUM (5) is among the chances again if he runs up to the latest effort.

Comments

Found some support last start but struggled and finished 4th on December 11 over 340m at this track behind Star Sirius beaten 2.5 lengths (19.76) in a NG. Placed two back at this track. Good beginner and should go close off the inside draw.

Comments

Flew the lids with a fast early split but ran over at the finish when a narrow fifth (19.76) over 340m at this track. Has a blistering 19.42 best time at this course and distance. Big chance.

Missed the frame latest (20.00) when seventh over 340m at this track in a NG. Has two successes and three minors from eight starts from box 4. Will need the right run.

Comments

Showed strong early pace and proved too slick around this track over 340m in 19.82, claiming a Grade 5 by 1.75 lengths. Makes appeal on the back of that latest win.

Big odds last time but gave a huge sight after a fast early split, grabbed late but holding on to a placing when a 1.5 lengths third (19.67) over 340m at this track. More than capable and ready to find best form.

Tends to be fast away. Last start finished fifth in a Grade 5 on November 6 over 431m at this track behind Dam Exciting, beaten 15 lengths (25.86). Others read better.
