Gawler Race 5

2026 Mike Wittholz Mixed Masters Series H Pr1 Divi

Prize Money: $2,095

DARK MOONSHINE (5) shapes as hard to beat after winning last start over the 342m at Angle Park in a strong 19.58. Top win latest and looms as the one to beat again. LONG GULLY ASH (1) has been a little hard to follow, missing the frame last time but was a Invitation winner three starts ago and has drawn 1 where he has five wins. Can hit the frame this time. ROCKLEA EARLE (7) shapes well after a sharp run last time, finishing second in a Grade 5 at this track in 22.89. Should be in this for a long way. REV LEON (4) racing over this distance brings the best out in him.

Missed the frame last start when seventh and beaten 10 lengths at Angle Park. Form solid prior to that including a win at Angle Park three back. Has ability and looks a key chance.

Good win last start as odds-on favourite by 4.5 lengths over 342m at Angle Park in a handy 19.58, beating Slipper's Maggie. Looks well placed and can measure up again.

Comments

Big odds last time but gave a huge sight after a fast early split, grabbed late but holding on to a placing when a 3.5 lengths second (22.89) over 400m at this track. Top-three hope with the right run.

Backs up after winning by a neck at Angle Park (20.01) beating Right Side Up in a OPEN on June 15 six days ago. This is much harder assignment and he needs to find another gear.
