Canberra Race 5 - Av Stone Marble & Granite 3yo Pace
A WISH GRANTED (7) has been racing well of late. Finished third at his latest appearance over 1770m at this track, beaten 5 metres when trying to lead all of the way. Drawn to enjoy a soft trip but might need things to go his way at some stage. Meets a similar line up and he is a strong winning hope. SUMMER PUNCH (9) is in good form having placed in the top-three in all of her last three runs, most recently recording a third over 1710m at Goulburn after racing three-back on the fence for most of the trip. Will need an ounce of luck to slot in from this tricky draw but won't find this line-up any harder and she can get the job done. SHE SHIMMERS (6) is having her fifth run this prep and should be at her peak for this. Finished third over 1740m at Riverina Paceway last start after racing outside the leader at the bell. Sure to give the top fancies plenty to think about. DUNNA HAMMY (1) is worth some thought despite his last-start eighth over 2100m at Young on September 15.

Last start 8th (Fr3) over 2100m at Young was 2nd-2.8 at the bell, beaten 13 m by Onedarknight (2:45.90) on September 15 at $13. Before that, 9th (Sr3) over 1740m at Riverina Paceway, at the bell was 7th-13.6 beaten 13 m by Happy Happy Days (2:06.00) in 3yo on September 8 at $71. Certainly worth another chance.

First up. At the last run she 10th (Fr2) over 1635m after showing early speed at Temora, at the bell was leading 2.8m on the pegs beaten 30 m by Ceebee (2:02.50) in 3yo on March 3 at $6. Big danger while fresh.

Two back was well beaten into fifth after showing early speed, behind Bay Of Fires at Riverina Paceway over 1740m in a 3yo on September 4 at $61. Then a handy effort when beaten by 5 m finishing third after a quick start, behind Hesourcelebrity at this track over 1770m in a 3yo on September 13 at $12. One of the primary contenders.

Didn't do much at the last run, 8th (Fr6) over 1770m at this track, beaten 45 m by Snipers Fire (2:08.80) in 3yo on September 21 at $41. Before that 10th (Fr4) over 1710m at Goulburn, well beaten by Im No Trouble (2:02.20) in 3yo on September 7 at $81. Unlikely to threaten.
