Gore Race 8

HUNTER FAMILY HANDICAP PACE

Prize Money: -

WAG STAR (7) finished third last start over 2700m at Ascot Park Raceway, beaten 4.5 metres, after a good win at Gore the run prior. Ideally placed and is sure to play a major role. ALWAYS DREAMING (5) finished fifth last start over 2700m at Ascot Park Raceway, beaten 7 metres, after a good win at Central Southland Raceway the run prior. Ideally placed and is sure to be there at the finish. BAR LOUIE (6) resumes from a spell. Last appeared when a modest seventh over 1980m at Addington four months ago. DREAMS ARE FREE (2) resumes following a spell of four months. Generally comes to hand very quickly, with two wins from four first-up appearances. Well-placed to open this prep with a win.
