Moruya Race 3 - Mitch Beer & George Carpenter Moruya Trainer Of The Year Mdn Plate
YAMASHITA (11) handy filly with her hoof on the till third up. Drops in grade and trip after savaging the line with a narrow third over 1200m at Kembla Grange. That form is good enough for her to take this out from the rails draw. MONTE SHELL (9) is very fit for this and improved sharply second up with a tenacious second over 900m at Newcastle. Has a host of gear changes and shapes as the main danger. BRUTAL ADVANCE (2) twelve start Maiden with a tidy record, resuming. Should present well following a recent trial win but might find this short of his best. Place preferred. EMPTY POCKETS (8) returned for her second campaign with a tiring on pace fourth over 1020m at this track. Sticky gate again and sure to be around the money.

Third race start. First start held ground to the line 3rd of 7 in a Ctry Mdn-Sw at Sapphire Coast on April 13 over 1005m, 2.25 len behind Artful Lady carrying 55kg at $8. Returned from break 4th of 10 in a Ctry Mdn at this track on August 28 over 1020m, on a slow track; 2.5 len behind Time For Snow carrying 55kg at $11. Strips fitter second up and can overcome the awkward gate.
