Mount Gambier Race 5

Clinton & Catherine Wilson Pace

Prize Money: $5,000

MAJESTIC CHEDDAR (3) has the hoof on the till having continued his consistent form by coming from wider and finishing runner-up at his most recent outing, beaten 1.5 metres at this circuit and distance. Long-time maiden but he should enjoy an economical run from this draw so gets his chance to break through. EASTBRO LUNA (5) faces the starter for the first time. By good sire Always B Miki and hails from the Rebecca East stable. Very close up in a recent trial. Could kick off with a win. POACHERS DREAM (4) is in the mix following fourth placings at her two most recent appearances at this circuit and distance. HAWKESDALE DEED (7) switches yards. Has been racing in Victoria but placed the only time she raced here so looks better placed.

Two back was beaten by 7 m finishing fourth after being driven well back, behind Always Be Techy at Ararat over 1790m in a MAIDEN on March 23 at $41. Then a handy effort when beaten by 1.5 m finishing second after being driven well back, after a quick start, behind Stars Legacy at this track over 1780m in a MAIDEN on April 7 at $3.20. Leading contender again.
