Gawler Race 5 - The Bunyip Stake Pr1 Division2
MANHATTAN MAGIC (5) is a super consistent dog who rarely misses the frame, last start scoring at this track (22.57), making it two straight wins. Has never been out of the money in three starts this course and distance. Has the ability and expected to prove tough to beat again. CLASSIC RETRO (1) failed to feature last start after settling off pace at this track, but prior to that won by 1.75 lengths at Murray Bridge (25.79) beating Algorithm in a Grade 6 on October 8. Has a win and two minor placings from three starts from this draw. Has ability and is one of the better chances. ZINFANDEL PEARL (7) was prominent throughout when winning two back but could manage only midfield last time when 5th and beaten 7 lengths at Angle Park (20.33). Won at her only start from this draw. Has ability and a bold showing is expected. LIFE OF LUXURY (8) cannot be dismissed although new to this venue.
