Geraldton Race 4 - Butterflyrock Leading Horse 24/25 (Bm58+)
DIRTY CHAI (5) had a stable switch and returned from a brief spell with a devastating 7.3 lengths win over this distance at Dongara last start. Likely to improve off that run so from a good gate under just 1kg more she can win again. IRONCLAD BOY (6) returned to form last time out, charging home late to just miss out over 1113m at this track. Nicely placed over this slightly longer journey and from gate one will give the top pick plenty to think about. ENTICING (7) returned from a forty-five-day break with an eye-catching second here at this trip recently. Veteran who should give a good account again. UNDERCOVER SNIPER (4) is up in grade but did well enough last start at Dongara to suggest he will be competitive. ROYAL GAP (2) is a top four hope first-up from a five-month spell.

Useful gelding. Most recently sat on the pace when 2nd of 10 at Dongara Rtg 55+ on April 19 over 1100m, long-neck behind Bitovemu carrying 57kg at $5.50. The run before that raced behind the speed prior to fading to run last of 11 at this track Cl2 on April 13 over 1113m, 18 len behind Queen Of Hawks with 60.5kg at $19. Looks a sound top three hope.

Second-up. First-up after two months scored a big 7 len win at Dongara Rtg 56+ April 19 over 1200m defeating Devils I with 54.5kg at $5.50. Previously second-up 7th of 10 at this track Cl2 on February 6 over 1413m, 5 len behind Clever Combat with 58.5kg at $8. The one to beat based on that latest effort. No need to look to others for the likely winner.
