Temora Race 3 - Happy Birthday Donna
SPRING JOEL (1) has some solid form under his belt and proved too strong last time to win by 6 lengths at this track in a handy 18.53 beating Jacobite Battle. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card in scoring last start. Expected to measure up again. DARCY MAC (7) boasts strong form at this course and distance having won five times from seven starts. Below best last time at this track (18.83) in a NG, finishing a 4.5 lengths fourth. Looks a key chance on best figures. LONE SHARK (8) wasn't far away at the finish when 5th and beaten only 4 lengths (19.09) at this track. Solid record here at this trip including three wins. Worth another chance. ELITE DARA (2) is another with top-three prospects.

Has finished sixth at his last three starts, most recently over 318m at Dubbo. Mixing his form but shapes as a genuine contender under these conditions.

Has failed to fire at the last couple but he has solid credentials over this track and distance. Rates highly and looks tough to beat.

Missed the frame latest (19.09) when fifth over 330m at this track in a Grade 4/5. Has two successes and three minors from seven starts from box 8. With a clean break looks hard to beat.
