Gosford Race 9

Statewide Fire Protection

Prize Money: $1,575

KAELIX NITRO (1) placed three back at The Gardens then out of the placings last couple but moves to box 1 this time where he has performed well. Has the ability and looks a key chance here. ROAD TO IBROX (8) drew a squeeze box and was game in defeat when a close third, 1.5 lengths from the winner Hey Mickey (22.55) at this track. Expected to be in the finish again. PROUD CHOICE (2) can run a bold race on best form.

Suited by inside box. Latest effort finished last in a Grade 4/5 on September 4 over 515m at The Gardens behind Fascinate John beaten 6 lengths (30.08). Has a strong 22.22 PB at this course and distance. Hard to beat.

Was out of the placings last time but the start prior finished in the minors when third (23.09) at big odds over 400m at The Gardens. Has a low draw and capable of a better result.

Good effort to win last start by 4.5 lengths over 400m at The Gardens in a handy (22.98), beating Fascinate Glory. Will find this a bit tougher, prepared to risk.

Was a winner three back at Taree Super Track then finished in the minors before missing the frame last time when fourth (25.67) at Gunnedah. Has ability but needs to find best and others make more appeal.

Was out of placings last time (23.28) at Maitland in a Grade 5, finishing seventh and beaten 12 lengths. Fairly consistent record from the draw including a win and four minors. Has ability and can sneak into the finish.

Showed brilliant pace early and gave a sight when a 1.5 lengths third over 388m this track in 22.55. Around the mark two starts back. Winning chance on that form.
