Dubbo Race 3

Palawa King @ Stud 0-2 Win

Prize Money: $3,110

SYDNEY KEEPING (7) finished well back at this track last time when a 9 length fifth (23.47) but scored four back at Bendigo (23.76). Strong form has emerged from his last run. Should bounce back. ELSA ABOVE (8) recorded a win over the 431m at Gunnedah in a quick 24.89 last start. Smart winner latest and looks a key chance on that form. LUMEAH ROCKET (1) has been beaten for early speed lately, last time finishing sixth (25.91) in a Grade 5 at Gunnedah. Has ability and a bold showing is expected. RUPERTUS (2) is one of the chances after collecting a minor prize last time.
