Mount Gambier Race 8 - 2025 Williams Crane Hire Christmas Cup H Pr1 Divis
HUNTSMAN (2) has a strong record here with 10 wins and nine placings from 21 starts. Recorded a one length win (22.32) in a Grade 4 last time at Murray Bridge. Looks the one to beat with even luck. KIA KEEPING (8) has a strong winning strike-rate here with four wins and a placing from six tries. Below best last time at this track (30.36) in a Grade 6, finishing a 2.5 lengths fourth. Suited here and expected to run well. BELAIR BETTY (5) comes here after a scorching win over 512m at this track in 29.79. Harder here but will be in this for a long way. BOROUGH BANKER (4) will be hard to beat despite making his debut at this circuit.

Missed the frame last time but was in the minors two on end prior to that, the most recent when second (17.88) over 305m at this track. Has the inside draw but will need the breaks to go his way.

Finished in the minors last time but the start prior was an eye-catching winner scoring by 1.75 lengths in a Grade 3/4/5 at this track and recording a respectable 29.96 over the 512m journey. Rates a chance if runs up to recent winning time.
