Gosford Race 3

Ladbrokes Mates Mode Pots

Stake: $2,840

PAPER SHREDDER (1) looks close to another win after finishing second from Box 2 last time (24.93) at Muswellbrook. Is yet to miss the placings from this draw, including three wins, from six starts. Deserves serious consideration. BIG AS CASH (2) was out of placings last time (22.73) at this track in a Mix 2/3, finishing fourth and beaten 5.5 lengths. Has four wins already from this draw. Makes strong appeal on best. GIRL UNLEASHED (8) can keep on winning after speedy last start success, claiming a Grade 4/5 at Richmond over 320m in 18.28. Top win latest and can measure up again. SCARLET OAK (5) is one to consider despite coming off a brief layoff.

Comments

Missed the frame last start when fourth but had been in strong form prior to that, winning two on end before placing two back. Looks a leading contender on best and expected to bounce back.

Facing tougher opposition than he has faced recent starts and current form just not to what is required to figure. Has failed to show enough to come into contention here.

Got back last start and could only manage seventh but before that won by one length at this track (22.60) beating Red Aura in a Grade 5 on May 20. Has ability and worth including.

Strong performance leading throughout to post a big 5.5 lengths victory in a Grade 4/5 last start at Richmond, clocking a slick 18.28 over the 320m trip. Has the ability and looks a key chance.
