Dubbo Race 3

Ladbrokes Bill & Peg Miller Memorial Cup Ht 2 H

Prize Money: $3,110

BLUE WARNING (2) is a promising type who notched his 2nd career success when too good (24.62) at Goulburn last time. Ran the fastest time on the program in his latest win. Expected to measure up again. TRACEY TARO (1) missed the frame latest when fifth at Maitland (22.85) but scored three back at Maitland (22.59). Form from her last run is proving to be solid. Deserves plenty of respect. SHAQ KEEPING (5) ran right away with it after running them ragged to make it two on the bounce, scoring at Richmond over 401m (22.68). Ran the fastest time on the program in his latest win. One of the prime contenders. WHISKEY MCGRAW (7) is a newcomer from the Dennis Barnes kennel. Start all important and will need some luck getting across from the wide draw. Profiles nicely but market best guide to ability.

Missed the frame last start when fifth and beaten 5 lengths at Maitland. Form solid prior to that including a win at Maitland three back. Best figures puts her right in this and well worth another chance.

Form has been strong, including a victory two starts back. Last time out finished 3rd over 401m at Richmond beaten 3 lengths (23.55) behind Copper Bullet in a Grade 5 on April 27. This appears within her reach.
