Gloucester Park Race 9

Odin Consulting Services 3Yo Fillies Ms Pace

Stake: $22,680

ARETHA (8) overcame a second row barrier for a resuming win by 3.3 metres at Pinjarra. Tactics will be crucial from this wide draw but she is building a strong record and is two from two when second-up so can deliver again. CAPTAINSHAVTIME (7) is back after four-and-a-half months but goes very well fresh with two wins and a placing from three attempts. The strike rate here is impressive so could make a winning return. RUBY LOU (6) draws wider but is looming as a threat after a good effort last start, leading and fighting on for second at Pinjarra. WICKED LOVER (2) draws well and resumes off consistent form including a G3 placing two back and a nose second last start. Looking for a good return. Something for the Multiples: CAPTAINSHAVTIME NZ (7) ARETHA NZ (8)

Good performance when beaten by 5.5 m finishing third behind Aretha at Pinjarra over 2185m in a 3yo No NR F on July 14 at $6. Then a handy effort when beaten by 5 m finishing third behind Troubadour at Bunbury over 2100m in a 3yo NR up to 70 on July 19 at $6.50. Go well again.
