Darwin Race 9

Arafura Catering Equipment Dash Division1

Stake: $1,296

ELITE TAZ (7) has shown good improvement at his last two starts, hitting the frame latest when 3rd at this track over 312m. The form from his last run is stacking up nicely. Rates highly and will give a great sight. TOPOLOGY MAN (1) missed the frame last time when fourth (18.36) at this track but prior to that had four placings in a row. Some good form is emerging from his last run. Can figure in the finish. FERNANDO LAKE (4) has a moderate overall strike-rate. Finished in the minors latest when second (18.34) at this track and may be close to breaking through. Must be included in calculations. MY MATE GLEN (5) is a last-start placegetter worth considering.

Suited by inside box. Last start finished 4th over 312m at this track beaten 6 lengths (18.36) behind Kanji Service in a Grade 4/5 on June 23. The form from last run stacks up well. Hard to beat.

Finished second last time (18.34) over 312m at this track. Drawn awkwardly. Solid top-three prospects.

Good effort last time when third (18.56) over 312m at this track. Tricky draw to overcome. Solid top-three prospects.

Was among the placegetters latest at this track when a 0.8 lengths third but did clock a fast 18.25 over the 312m trip. Looms as the one to beat this time.
