Race 12

Prize Money: $772

GRIPPER DAN (6) was strong over this course and distance last time despite filling the minors, finishing half a length behind Fast Walk in 29.11 and recording a new PB here. Smart run latest and looks a key chance here. EMERS SCOOBY (2) is struggling to break through but racing consistently, finishing in the minors six on end. Last start rocketed out of the boxes with a scorching early sectional but gathered in and finished in the minors when third (29.32) at this track over 480m. Expected to be in the finish again. HOLDTHEBACKPAGE (5) has been in super consistent form recently with two minors on end before missing the frame latest finishing fourth (29.36) at this track. Bold showing expected. AMKA WOLF (4) has ability and finds the right scenario to bounce back.

Overdue for a win recording six minors on end, the latest sizzling early but finishing in the minors again at this track, clocking 29.32. More than capable and has to be included.

Could only manage fifth last time out over 480m at this track, a continuation of some ordinary form. Prepared to overlook.

Charged out of the boxes with a sizzling early sectional but swamped late when a close up fifth (29.72) at this track over 480m. Didn't show up last start but give her another chance.

Latest effort finished 4th in an A6 on August 13 over 480m at this track behind Easy Magico beaten 6 lengths (29.36). Capable of improvement on latest effort. Well placed and should feature.

In the money at this track at his last couple of starts, most recently finishing second over 480m. Won't find this much harder. Definite contender.
