CENTRAL SOUTHLAND RACEWAY   08 May 2025
 
GOING: N

NEXT RACE MEETING HERE THURSDAY 22ND MAY MOBILE PACE 2400m

Track: GOOD      

LOUIES GIRL (6) ran fifth last start at Ascot Park Raceway over 2200m, beaten 14 metres. Finds a suitable assignment and will prove very tough to beat. MIRACULOUS (5) ran fifth last start at Ascot Park Raceway over 2700m, beaten 14 metres. Has ability and should be right in the finish. BISMARCK DU PLESSIS (4) has been hard to fault of late, adding to the winning tally last start with success over 2400m at this track. No reason why the run cannot continue. STILL ROCKIN (3) is worth some thought despite his last-start eighth over 2400m at this circuit on April 17. Can bounce right back to form against this lot.

Comes here second-up after four weeks. Lacklustre first-up performance when 9th (Fr1) over 2400m at this track, beaten 45 m by Bismarck Du Plessis (2:59.90) on April 10 at $28.30. Might need more time.

Looked good last start. Won by a neck (FrU1) at this track (2:58.90) beating Deny Everything in 3yo+ on May 4 at $37.30. Two runs back 6th (U1) over 2200m at Ascot Park Raceway beaten 13 m by Slots (2:41.40) in 4yo+ on April 27 at $17.80. Maybe a place.
