Darwin Race 9 - Arafura Catering Equipment Dash Division1
BEAR THE BRUNT (8) is progressing well and looks close to another win after hitting the frame last run (18.09) at this track. Has never missed the frame here at the trip from five starts. Strong form has emerged from his last run. Rates highly and will give a great sight. HOORAY CARTER (4) put in a much better performance last start when in the placings at this track behind Willow's Witch (18.37) in a Grade 2/3/4. Can feature again. CHRONIC (1) was a course and distance winner (18.15) last time also from the same draw, scoring by 0.8 lengths in a Grade 3. Rates a leading chance again. HONEST JAN (5) profiles nicely here at this trip.

Form has been good with a placing two starts ago and a win three runs back. Last time out finished 3rd in a Free For All on August 18 over 383m at this track behind Enigma Go beaten 5 lengths (22.46). Likely to find this too tough.

Good effort last time when third (18.25) over 312m at this track. Squeeze draw to overcome. One of the better hopes.
