Mount Gambier Race 12

Federal Hotel Mixed Stake Pr1 Division1

Stake: $2,810

Good even race to finish. SHER ZANY (8) was terrific last week after getting strung up early and struggling to get clear running. Made great ground late and if he can get the right run then he can take this out at some value. AMENDOLA (1) should get the perfect run here through on the inside. Good chance. TOP CADILLAC (4) is very classy and strong.

Very honest dog who had little luck last week from a wide draw. Drawn to perfection here and he can go straight to the front.

Rewarded for recent efforts with a smart win last week. Jumped well but did shift up the track. Can repeat that win with another good start.

Super unlucky two back here when he was pressured from the outside and checked off heels. Small field certainly suits.

Found the front early last week and then fought back after being overtaken. Can lead again, just whether she has the midrace pace to hold them off.

Big effort last week after having absolutely no luck early. Made good ground once he got into the clear. Small fields helps to offset the draw
