Gloucester Park Race 7

Smartee Spoilt The Party Ms Pace

Stake: $29,160

GEE HEZA SPORT (8) was terrific in placing in The Nullarbor and the Fremantle Cup in his last two attempts here and returned to winning form last week, racing parked for a strong win in the Narrogin Cup. Draws out but he is very smart and in form so doubt the barrier will stop him. MONTANA D J (4) gets the same draw he had when he toughed out a win here two back and since then was runner-up to a smart mare. Go well. HOPPYS WAY (6) was below market expectations when beaten 5 metres last time but he overraced and suffered a gear malfunction so can do better. ARMA XFACTOR (7) owns a good second-up record so could progress despite a wider draw. Something for the Multiples: GEE HEZA SPORT NZ (8) HOPPYS WAY NZ (6) MONTANA D J NZ (4)

10-year-old gelding showed improvement last time. 3rd (Sr1) over 2662m at Narrogin, beaten 25 m by Gee Heza Sport (3:16.50) in No NR on May 17 at $61. The race before was not as impressive when beaten by 5.5 m finishing fourth behind My Silver Spoon at Pinjarra over 2631m in a NR 60 or better on May 12 at $10. Not keen.
