Gawler Race 2 - Irongate Australia Mdn Plate
ELITE THUNDER (1) gave away a considerable start over 1400m at Murray Bridge last time before hitting the line well to finish fourth. Peak fitness now and is perfectly placed to shed his maiden tag. SIR CASTLETON (6) is building nicely. Showed good tactical speed again last time and held on well for second. Strips fitter and gets key switches with Holder taking over from a low draw. LOVE TO LIE (10) is knocking on the door and gets in light again with the 2kg claimer staying aboard. Just needs some luck from the wide alley. LUNAR VISTA (3) has been thereabouts of late and should be at his top now.

Having third race start. When well in the market at debut, ran last of 9 at Oakbank 3yo+ Mdn-Sw on April 6 over 1050m, on a slow track; 7 len behind Darlinc with 57kg at $4.60. Second-up 7th of 11 at Balaklava 3yo+ Mdn-Sw on April 15 over 1400m, 7 len behind Alpine Lee carrying 57kg at $61. Likely improver who can get off the mark this time.

At the latest run raced on the pace before fading 10th of 14 at Murray Bridge 3yo+ Mdn-Sw on April 10 over 1600m, on a slow track; 6 len behind Innominate with 57kg at $21. The start before that 4th of 10 at Balaklava 3yo+ Mdn-Sw on April 1 over 1600m, 3.5 len behind Thundara carrying 57kg at $41. Looks out of his depth.
