Darwin Race 3

Arafura Catering Equipment Dash Division1

Stake: $1,474

SO NAIVE (4) has a strong record this track and trip with five wins and three placings from eight starts. Placed last time (18.17) at this track in a OPEN, finishing second and beaten 0.8 lengths. Rates on top and should go close. NICK THE QUICK (6) turned in a better run last time to find a minor placing (18.35) at this track behind Northern Express in a Grade 4. Expected to feature again. WHISKEY DIVA (8) was below latest but prior to that a Grade 4 winner in quick time (18.37) at this track in a Grade 4. Key player on best and worth another try. WAR ADMIRAL (2) must be among the chances on the last run here.

Good performance to win by a neck at this track over 312m (18.46) beating Flying Agassi in Grade 5 /MDN on January 8. Tempted to look elsewhere.

Good effort last time when second (18.45) over 312m at this track. Has a low draw. Solid top-three prospects.

Hit the frame latest (18.17) when second at this track in a OPEN. Still a maiden from this draw but has never missed the frame from three starts. Leading player.

In the money last time at this track (18.35) in a Grade 4, finishing a 2 length third. Has four wins and five placings from 16 starts from the draw. Looks suited and should go close.

Did a good job two starts back at this track to win by 1.75 lengths in 18.37, beating Bluey La La. Last start finished last on January 12 over 312m at this track behind Quick Shadow beaten 7 lengths (18.66) in a OPEN. Solid claims this line-up.
