Darwin Race 4

Ladbrokes Australia Day Medal F Division1

Prize Money: $3,300

SOCKS LA LA (1) has some solid form under her belt and proved too classy last time to win by a neck at this track in a handy 22.73 beating MARLIE ON FIRE. Well placed and can measure up. REX ON FIRE (7) scored an upset win in a Free For All at this track last time in the best time of the card (22.27). Form at the trip sound including seven wins. Recorded the quickest time on the card last start. Deserves serious consideration again. WOLF MAN (2) turned in a better effort at this track last start, finishing third behind REX ON FIRE (22.74) in a Free For All. Expecting another good run. GO JO (6) collected a minor prize last start and must be considered.

In the money last time at this track (22.74) in a Free For All, finishing a 6 length third. Has two wins and two placings from seven starts from the draw. Looks hard to beat with even luck.

Racing well without winning, filling the minors at his last four starts, the latest when third (18.49) at this track. Squeeze draw to overcome. Looks to have the job ahead.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (22.78) in a Free For All, finishing a 7 length fourth. Box stats strong with two wins and two placings from five starts. Will need some luck to feature.

Sent out long odds last time but charged out of the boxes with a strong early sectional and went on to clock 22.27 in a 3 length win at this track over 383m. Looks the one to beat again.

Missed the frame last time but was in the minors two on end prior to that, the most recent when third (22.92) over 383m at this track. Looks safely held.
