Gosford Race 9 - Simply Limelight At Stud 1-2 Win
HANDS ON TINA (3) had been going along well winning a Maiden three back then placing at this track before missing the frame latest when fifth (22.64) at this track. Better than last run and makes appeal this time. ALFIE'S POP (8) missed the frame and safely held latest finishing 7th at The Gardens following on from a win (23.29) there the start prior. The form out of his last race has been franked. Key runner who gets his chance to atone. MIDNIGHT MOHAWK (4) finished second (22.99) two back at The Gardens but out of the placings last time when 7th there. In the mix. GLASS OF GOLD (1) hasn't been far away, finishing in the money twice in a row including last time in a Grade 5 at this track over 388m.

Form has tapered off a little since recording maiden win three back at Richmond. Placed two back then finished a 7 length sixth (35.89) at this track. Has ability and looks one of the hopes in this.
