Darwin Race 3

Ladbrokes Odds Surge Dash Division1

Prize Money: $1,750

BLUE STEEL (4) turned in a fair 5th placed finish last time at this track over 383m (22.80). The form from her last run stacks up well. Better than the latest effort and deserves another chance. CHEERS MICK (3) finds it hard to break through. Finished second (18.37) at this track latest and might be close to finding winning form again. Form at the trip sound including four wins. Winning chance. CHIEF COSTA (7) missed the frame and safely held latest finishing 8th at this track following on from a win (18.21) there the start prior. Has never been out of the placings from two starts out of this box. Great chance to atone. MISH MASH (1) was out of the money at this circuit last start but can make amends.

Could only manage sixth last time but the start prior hit the frame when second (18.42) over 312m at this track. Has a solid winning strike rate off the inside draw and is among the better hopes.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (22.81) in a Grade 5, finishing a 6 length fifth. Has performed well off the draw with a win and four places from six starts. Tough line-up and may struggle.

Good performance to win by one length at this track over 383m (22.34) beating Enigma Vivid in Grade 5 on August 3. Can't make much of a case this time.
