Gosford Race 10 - Happy Birthday Dave Power
LAKOTA COURTNEY (2) held her own to the line last start and filled a minor placing, beaten only 0.8 lengths (22.78) behind Savvy Lad at this track. Smart beginner who should take advantage of the low draw. Nicely placed to grab a well-deserved win. MR. SPECKLE (8) is mixing form lately, finishing out of the placings last time at this track but was a Grade 5 winner two back at Gunnedah. Solid beginner and with a good start should have clear running out wide. Expected to bounce back to best. DRINK ROSE (1) doesn't have the best strike-rate but recent form is sound. Has been in the minors the last two runs, the latest finishing third (22.68) at this track. Solid record at the distance winning two races. Expected to feature. MISS BANSKY (7) with some luck can improve on an unplaced run last time here.

Has been in the minors the last two, the latest showing strong pace early but gathered in and finished a 0.8 lengths third over 388m this track in 22.68. Thereabouts at the last couple. Suited here and likely to run well.

Racing well without winning, recording three minors on end, the latest hitting the ground running with a fast early sectional but finishing in the minors again when third (22.78) over 388m at this track. Some good form is emerging from that last run. Expected to prove hard to beat.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage seventh last time out over 272m at The Gardens. Prepared to risk on this occasion.

Finished in the minors last time when second (22.71) at this track, making it two placings on end. Drawn awkwardly. Others preferred.

Good effort to win last start by half a length over 388m at this track in a handy (22.65), beating Stylish Eyes. Will find this a bit tougher, likely to find this too tough.

Backs up after finishing 6th on March 5 over 388m at this track in a Grade 5. Doesn't profile as a likely winner.

Missed the frame latest (22.83) when sixth over 388m at this track in a Grade 5. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed two times. Has ability and should be around the money.

Won two starts back when well in the market at Gunnedah over 431m. Last start finished 5th over 388m at this track beaten 5 lengths (22.74) behind Bonus Ethics in a Grade 5 on March 5. Good beginner who will take catching with any luck from on outside draw.
