Dubbo Race 6

The Shire Bar & Grill

Prize Money: $2,655

ARMATREE VIOLET (8) is a smart dog who pinged the lids and cleared the pack early, leading throughout to win (22.98) at this track in NG over 400m. Solid record at the distance winning 14 races. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card in scoring last start. Sure to prove hard to beat. DUSTY MCGRAW (2) is a promising type who notched his 15th career success when too good (21.01) at Nowra last time. Solid winning record at this trip. Has performed well from this box with a win and two minor placings to his name from four starts. Deserves serious consideration again. SHORTY (4) missed the frame last time at this track but the start prior rocketed around 400m at this track in 22.88. Top win two back and can measure up again. TORVI TARO (1) is in the mix despite missing out at this track last time.

Did a good job two starts back at Gosford to win by 2.25 lengths in 22.41, beating Tilly The Filly. Last start finished last over 520m at Wentworth Park beaten 14 lengths (30.57) behind Taw Major in a Grade 5 on February 21. Not one of the leading chances on this occasion.

Got back last start and could only manage fifth but before that won by a neck at this track (22.88) beating Armatree Violet in a Free For All on February 21. Major threat on best form.
