Ladbrokes Geelong Race 3 - Dmb Contracting Mdn Plate
GROUSE MOUNTAIN (5) resumes and looks a strong winning hope. Now with Gavin Bedggood who has a great knack with tried horses, she's been around the mark in all four career runs to date, running well against some handy types. She looks well placed here. POP AWARD (7) resumes. She placed in both runs to date at Sale, third to the subsequent stakes winner Kundalini on debut before another close-up effort before a spell. She can take this out. HOFF IS ENUFF (1) has had a few chances but did run very well fresh at Stony Creek. Gets Zahra aboard here with that run under the belt and can figure. TANGOETTE (8) has been about the mark in two runs to date and can sneak into the finish.

Second run back. First-up after five months held ground to the line 2nd of 11 at Stony Creek Mdn-Sw on December 30 over 1100m, 0.8 len behind Permanence carrying 59.5kg at $4.80. Previously second-up got back early 4th of 8 at Pakenham Mdn-Sw on May 23 over 1200m, on a slow track; 3.5 len behind La Fracas with 59.5kg at $12. Fitter, should take beating.
