Mount Gambier Race 9

Da'leni Meats Stake Pr1 Division1

Stake: $1,636

RIVIA UMIKO (8) stalked the lead from the inside draw before finishing third last start (22.84) at Ballarat in Restricted WIN over 390m. Deserves serious consideration. SHUFFLING (4) recorded a 1.5 lengths second in a TG1-4W last time 23.71 at this track and trip and also jumping from the same draw. Key chance on best form. MERMAID LADY (3) had been in super honest form hitting the frame three times on end before finishing fourth (25.94) at Warrnambool last time. Should be in this for a long way. HOTFOOT CUDDLES (1) missed the placings here last start but is well-placed to make amends.

Backs up after finishing 6th on April 28 over 390m at Warrnambool in a Grade 7. Doesn't look smart enough to threaten the top few.
