First National Real Estate Murray Bridge Stake Pr1

Prize Money: $1,860

SORELLA (1) turned in a better run last time to find a minor placing (22.55) at this track behind PAPA EASY in a Grade 3/4/5. Has the early speed to land on the pace and can stick on. Can find winning form. CROYDON REIGN (3) hit the frame two on end before being rewarded with a deserved win last time, scoring at this track over 395m (22.52). Ran one of the fastest times on the program in her latest win. Can go close again if runs up to latest figure. PAPA EASY (6) is a fast beginner who has shown good improvement at his last two starts, breaking through last time at this track over 395m. Ran the fastest time on the program in his latest win. Expected to measure up again. SOLO MAN (2) was out of the frame here most recently but can atone.

Got back last start and could only manage seventh but before that won comfortably by 7 lengths at this track (25.40) beating Victa Wally in a Grade 6 on July 24. Not far away last start. Right in the mix again.

Comments

Should get a clear run from the wide draw. Wasn't impressive last start but does have a great record at this track and distance, not far away last start. Right in the mix again.

Expected Early Speed:Midfield
