Mount Gambier Race 10 - Klaassens Contractors (Pbd Data N/P) Stake Pr2 Div

NAPIER BALE (1) showed little early speed at his last couple, the latest finishing eighth (26.83) in a Rank Limit - Grade 5 at Geelong. Ready to return to form. CLOSE SHAVE (7) has a fair record and proved too strong last time to win by 2 lengths at this track in a handy 23.26 beating Energy To Burn. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card in scoring last start. Hard to fault recent form and looks a key chance again. RUSTY WHEELS (2) last start finished 4th over 400m at this track beaten 5.5 lengths (23.62) behind CLOSE SHAVE in a Other on August 6. Can hit the frame with the right run. COMPTON BOWIE (8) is worth consideration after filling a hole last start.
