Gosford Race 5 - Simply Limelight Gosford - Wenty Ht 1 H
SMART STYLE (5) has been settling off the speed lately, finishing sixth (25.64) last time in a Grade 5 at Maitland. Form at the trip sound including two wins. Still to record a win from this draw but has never missed the frame in two starts. Has winning claims on his best figures. DIGGER SURE CAN (3) was in the money again last start when second at The Gardens (30.05). Expected to bounce back to best. MR. BOMBASTIC (7) missed the frame and was safely held latest finishing 7th at Wentworth Park following on from a second place finish (29.81) at this track the start prior. Has ability and can measure up. ZIPPING ORCA (1) missed the placings here most recently but can sneak into the finish with the right run.

Has finished fourth at this circuit at the last two appearances, most recently when beaten 6 lengths behind Messy Boy over 515m. Look for improvement. Not out of it.

Hit the ground running with a slick early sectional but had to settle for a minor placing when a 4 length third over 520m at Richmond, clocking 30.33. Strong form emerging from the last run. Looks one of the chances.

Good performance to win by a nose at Maitland over 400m (22.54) beating Stereophonic in Maiden on March 9. Hard to envisage a win.

Didn't make the placings last time at Q Parklands (35.60) in a Restricted WIN, finishing a 8 length fifth. Still a maiden from the draw but has placed four times. Tough field and looking to others this time.

Last start finished last over 520m at Wentworth Park beaten 12 lengths (30.56) behind Ritza Tears in a NG on March 14. Below best last time but looks well placed here. Deserves another chance.

Good effort at double-figure odds last time when third (30.17) over 515m at The Gardens. Jumps from a wide draw. Has ability and should run well.
