thedogs - Mount Gambier 14 May 2023 Race 11

DONNY ROCKS (1) has been racing in consistent form without winning and looks well placed to return to the winner's circle. He is well drawn on the rails and the small field will suit. TAPERING OFF (2) hasn't missed a cheque in his past five starts and looks the danger. SUGAR FREAK (8) was good here last week and can handle the wide draw.

Comment:Began on terms and worked to the line well when a close 3rd in 27.49 at Horsham last start. Owns a smart 29.70 PB this trip and the small field suits.
