Gosford Race 6 - Simply Limelight At Stud 1-2 Win
TIGER'S GAMBIT (2) was quickly out of the boxes with a slick early sectional clocking 22.78 with a nose win at Maitland over 400m. Strong form has emerged from her last run. Great chance to get the job done again. MESSY BOY (7) made it two minor placings on the trot when beaten third (30.24) in a Grade 5 at Richmond last time out. Can turn it around this time. RAMJET (1) has been in the money at his last two runs, most recently when third (30.65) in a Mix over 525m at Taree Super Track. Well placed here and can atone this time. RAINBOW SHOUT (3) comes into calculations after placing most recently.

Caught the eye with a fast early split and setting up a nose win at Maitland over 400m in 22.78. Can make it two on the bounce.

In the money last time at The Gardens (23.24) in a Grade 5, finishing a 0.8 lengths second. Has never missed the placings from three starts off this box. Makes appeal on best.

Poor last start but ran a better race two back when fourth over 401m at Richmond. Prepared to overlook.

Was a winner three back at Bulli then finished in the minors before missing the frame last time when eighth (19.01) at Richmond. Has ability but this tough and looks a place chance at best.

Flew the lids with a fast early split last time, hitting the frame with a 3 length third (30.24) over 520m at Richmond and making it two placings on end. Some good form is emerging from that last run. Expected to prove hard to beat.

Last start finished fifth on August 1 over 515m at The Gardens behind Midnight Mohawk, beaten 6 lengths (30.27) in a Grade 5. Be tough to make an impression against this lot.
