Mount Gambier Race 3

Quickmix Concrete Group Stake Pr1 Division1

Prize Money: $1,610

DELL MISTER (7) put in a much better performance last start when in the placings at this track behind Dimora Bluey (17.95) in a Grade 5. Has the pace to be prominent. Good form should continue. CLOSE COMBAT (1) started big odds last time but hit the ground running with a strong early split, giving a sight but fading only late to finish third (18.04) at this track over 305m. Consistent performer from this draw with a win and eight minor placings to his credit. Winning chance. BERRINGA PADDY (2) has been in super consistent form recently with two minors on end before missing the frame latest finishing fifth (18.91) at this track. Form here at the trip sound including two wins. Has ability and is one of the better chances. HARRY CHANA (4) missed the placings here last start but is well-placed to bounce back.

Could only manage fifth last time but had been in the money the two starts prior, most recently when a narrow second (17.11) over 300m at Healesville. Aided by a low draw but will need to find best.

Could only manage fourth last time but the start prior hit the frame at double figure odds when second (23.65) over 400m at this track. Tricky draw to overcome but can measure up.

Flew the lids with a fast early split but had to contend with second when clocking 17.95 over 305m at this track. Has a solid record from this box, including three wins. Expected to go well.
