Doncaster Race 10

450Mtrs (OR)

Prize Money: $1,701

GOTHIC JOSHUA (5) steps out for the first time at this circuit. Comes here a last start placegetter at Doncaster in a OR3 (27.94). One of the leading chances. AUDIENCE (6) goes very well this trip starting 20 times for nine wins and eight minors. Comes off a (27.45) win last time, scoring by 4 lengths in a OR over 450m at Doncaster. Looks suited here and can measure up. DROOPYS ARTILERY (3) settled down midfield and held his position to the line when finishing 5th (28.04) at Doncaster. The form out of his last race has been franked. Better than the latest run and deserves another chance. TOMAHAWK (1) is worth a look despite no experience at this circuit.

Below best last start when he finished 4th in a IV on April 26 over 480m at Sheffield behind Romeo Cobra beaten 8 lengths (28.26). Hard to recommend this time.

Racing well of late. In the money two starts back at Doncaster then finished runner-up at his latest appearance in a OR at Doncaster over 450m (27.77). In form but this might be too tough.

In top form with a four run winning streak. Well fancied last start won comfortably by 4 lengths at Doncaster (27.45) beating Clona Chief in a OR on April 25. In sparkling form and can win again.
