Mount Gambier Race 10

Williams Crane Hire Stake Pr1 Division1

Prize Money: $1,610

IMPOSTER (1) goes very well at the course with two wins and a placing from four starts. Below best last time at Warrnambool (22.58) in a Grade 4/5, finishing a 11 length eighth. Expected to be in the finish. DUKE CABOOM (4) lines up here off a comfortable win at this track after jumping from box 1 (23.10). Will need some luck early after drawing a tricky box here. Winner at his latest appearance in one of the quickest times on the card. Can measure up again. BERT DEEDS (2) turned spotting a big start finishing fourth (22.42) last time in a Grade 5 at Warrnambool. Has a good record here including two wins. Key runner on best form. ASTON BLEND (5) form at this course and distance reads well.

Comes off a (23.10) win last time, scoring by 2.25 lengths in a Grade 6 over 400m at this track. Has performed well off the draw with a win and two places from four starts. With a clean break looks hard to beat.

Strong performance to post a big 4.5 lengths victory in a Grade 6 last start at this track, recording an enormous 22.97 over the 400m journey. Expected to feature if runs up to that effort.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage fourth last time out over 400m at this track. Likely to struggle this time.
