Dubbo Race 9

Zipping Kyrgios @ Stud Masters

Prize Money: $2,335

ELUSIVE TOM (2) boasts a strong record this journey with 10 wins and 10 minors from 28 tries. Hit the frame latest (18.46) when second at this track in a Mix 2/3. Looks a leading chance on best. NATES FURY (7) produced a head turning 18.22 when winning over 318m at this track last start. This tougher but looks a leading chance again. RADLEY ERSKIN (1) turned in a modest effort most recently when fifth at this track over 318m behind Travelling Gem (18.50) in a Free For All. Must be included in calculations. SILVERS FURY (3) gets a chance to improve on an unplaced run at his latest outing at this circuit.

Comments

Could only manage fifth last time but the start prior hit the frame when third (23.15) over 400m at this track. Boxed out wide but is among the better hopes.
