Darwin Race 5 - OLD MATES BAKERY DASH Division1

ONTARIO (1) boasts a strong record this journey here with seven wins and six minors from 20 tries. In the money last time at this track (22.27) in a Grade 3/4, finishing a 4.5 lengths second. Rates on top and should go close. LITTLE LOCKETT (4) was strongly fancied latest and proved too good with a 6 length win at this track in a handy 17.89. Awkwardly drawn but goes well at this distance. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card in scoring last start. Can go close again if runs up to latest figure. MERMAID SHIMMER (6) is mixing form lately, finishing out of the placings last time at this track but was a Grade 4/5/MDN winner two back at this track. Well placed here and can atone this time. SO NAIVE (2) can fill a top-three spot.

Strong performance to post a big 6 lengths win at this track over 312m (17.89) beating Birmingham in Grade 3 on May 17. Boasts a course and distance PB in a dazzling 21.62. Top chance.

Won two starts back when well in the market at this track over 383m. Last start finished 5th in a Grade 2/3/4 on May 17 over 383m at this track behind Dance Her Home beaten 6 lengths (22.77). Is a danger.

Good effort to win last start by 5 lengths over 312m at this track in a handy (17.73), beating So Naive. Will find this a bit tougher, in form but prepared to risk this time.
