Gosford Race 9

Ontrack Insider 2-4 Win

Prize Money: $3,135

EXORBITANT (1) showed strong early pace and proved too slick around Maitland over 450m in 24.87, claiming a Grade 5 by one length. The form from his last run stacks up well. Ideally placed to take this out. SHAKE NOT STIR (7) has a strong record here including two wins from three starts. Missed the frame latest (23.18) when fifth over 401m at Richmond in a Grade 5. Suited here and expected to run well. SMART STYLE (3) comes into this as a quickest on the card winner last time at this track, scoring by 1.3 lengths (35.42). Capable of going close again.

Consistent performer who is new here. Nice win last start by one length at Maitland (24.87) beating Stereophonic in a Grade 5 on May 11. Expected to measure up again.

Missed the frame last start when fifth and beaten 9 lengths at Wentworth Park. Form solid prior to that including a win at Taree Super Track three back. Has ability but this tough and looks a place chance at best.
