Port Pirie Race 9 - Mensland Port Pirie Pace (Sky 2)
NEVADA GAMBLER (4) hit his peak third-up when he came from this barrier to score by 12 metres at Globe Derby last time out. Won over this distance the only time he raced here. Can strike again. HILLTOP STAR (2) has switched back to SA since she was last seen in the Breeders Crown series in Victoria in December. Proven fresh and was readied with a trial. Draws well so could make a winning return. TIGER ROARS (5) won the last time he raced here last month and has been solid in both outings since. KEAYANG MEMORY (7) draws for a trail and could get into the finish.

Returns from the paddock. Previously first up won by 1.3 m (Fr2) at Globe Derby Park (2:13.80) beating Grumpypants Gracie in 2yo F on November 15 at $3.70. Well-placed for the return and is likely to measure up.

Two back was beaten by 7 m finishing fourth after a quick start, behind Weregoingtogetcha at Globe Derby Park over 1800m on June 27 at $13. Then a handy effort when beaten by 5 m finishing third after being driven well back, behind Harlem Town at Globe Derby Park over 1800m on July 6 at $21. Can improve. Bold showing expected again.
