Race 6

Prize Money: $68,056

DAN D MAN CAN (4) added to his recent string of strong performances last start when runner-up over 1609m at this track, beaten 2.25 metres. Primary contender in this comparable race. AUGUST SALAZAR (6) finished fourth last start, beaten 5 metres at The Red Mile over 1609m. Expect him to pose a serious challenge. BRAVO ALPHA (1) comes right into contention after scoring last start by 0.9 metres at this track over 1609m. WOODSIDE JULIUS (2) must be included on the back of some solid recent form, most recently when fourth at this track over 1609m.

Didn't do much last start, 7th (Fr7) over 1609m at this track, well beaten by Nighthawk Zette (1:53.20) in ISS-3CGT on August 20 at $76.30. Before that 4th (Fr4) over 1609m at this track beaten 15 m by Nighthawk Zette (1:54.00) in ISSE-3CGT on July 30 at $19.20. Would rather see in something easier.
