Mount Gambier Race 5

Produce Store (N/P) Stake Pr2 Division1

Prize Money: $1,070

NAPIER BALE (1) hit the frame two on end before being rewarded with a deserved win last time, scoring at this track over 400m (23.28). Ran one of the fastest times on the program in his latest win. Looks the one to beat. RUSTY WHEELS (7) has been settling off the speed lately, finishing sixth (18.17) last time in a Grade 6 at this track. Solid record here at the distance winning six races. One of the main contenders. MAGIC POPPY (5) turned in a plain effort last time when sixth at this track over 400m behind NAPIER BALE (24.01) in a Other. Must be included in calculations. CLASSY WILLOW (2) must be respected despite an unplaced effort here most recently.

Good performance to win by one length at this track over 400m (23.28) beating Compton Bowie in Other on July 16. Strongly fancied and lived right up to expectations last start. Stick with him.

Missed the frame last time but was narrowly beaten at big odds two back when second (23.65) over 400m at this track. Draws an inside box and capable of a better result.

Modest effort last time out when fourth over 400m at this track. Can't recommend her in this.

Most recent effort finished last in a Other on July 16 over 400m at this track behind Napier Bale beaten 10 lengths (24.01). Look for improvement. Not out of it.

Last start finished last on July 19 over 305m at this track behind My Mate Tex beaten 7 lengths (18.17) in a Grade 6. Happy to overlook recent performances. Well placed and gets chance to find best.

Good effort at double-figure odds last time when third (23.70) over 400m at this track. Jumps from a wide draw. Others preferred.
