Verdict

GRUMPYPANTS GRACIE (2) scored at the first run back from a layoff last time out over 1m at Port Pirie on August 11, finishing 3.5 metres ahead of her rivals. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Stepping up a level this time but she is capable of another big performance. LUCKY BAMBINO (3) was responsible for a far better performance last start when he scored by 2.25 metres over 1 ?m at this track. A nice draw on the front line should ensure a cosy run. Facing a tougher assignment but he is good enough to cope. CENTREFOLD STAR (6) is looming as a real threat after a better effort last start, finishing third at this track over 1 ?m. MICKTHEBESTBUTCHER (1) will be rock-hard fit after four runs back from a spell, the latest effort a third at Port Pirie three weeks ago.
