Mount Gambier Race 7

Metal Worx (N/P) Tg 1-4W Series H Pr2 Division1

Stake: $1,095

ROUGH GIRL RUBY (6) was well fancied last time on the strength of a win two back but could only manage fifth (18.59) at this track. Should bounce back. CLASSY WILLOW (2) has shown good improvement at her last two starts, breaking through last time at this track over 400m. Has hit winning form and can measure up again. POPCORN MISS (1) produced a moderate run last time when eighth at Warrnambool over 390m behind Agon Caramel (23.34) in a Grade 5. Leading chance. ASTON SALMON (3) collected a minor prize last start over this track and distance - must be considered.

Drawn the inside. At the last start finished last over 390m at Warrnambool beaten 10 lengths (23.34) behind Agon Caramel in a Grade 5 on July 28. Expect improvement on the latest effort. Great chance to atone.

Strong performance to win by 0.8 lengths at this track over 400m (23.81) beating Aston Salmon in TG1-4W on July 31. Makes plenty of appeal on the back of the latest win.

Having her first start over this trip. Last start finished fifth at this track over 305m in (18.59). With some luck and a clean start should figure in the finish.
