Gawler Race 8 - 2026 Peter Kittle Toyota Gawler Gold Cup H Pr1 Div
WAX AND WASH (6) produced an impressive win last time in quickest of the meeting when scoring by 5.5 lengths (22.00) at Murray Bridge. Rates a top chance again. PAW PETROV (2) missed the frame but ran a respectable 30.85 when fourth over 531m at this track last start in a Grade 5. Harder here but will be in this for a long way. KEELEY ROSE (1) was well supported last time but could only manage third (23.11), beaten one length. Overdue and expected to feature again. COAST RIG (8) warrants respect although new to this track.

Has not shown much in recent runs. Could only manage fifth last time out over 515m at Sandown. Others preferred on this occasion.

Was prominent from the outset and held on well to win at Murray Bridge over 395m in 22.00 last start, beating Terrific Lucy. Has never missed the frame from three starts out of this box. Major player.

Good effort to win last start by 0.8 lengths over 388m at Gosford in a handy (22.36), beating Bring The Beers. In winning form and can measure up again.
