Casino Race 9 - Mark Hughes Foundation
SAUSAGE GAMBLER (1) was below best last time when seventh at Q Lakeside but three back was a Grade 5 winner in the quickest time on the card at this track. This looks easier and expected to bounce back. KOORINGA ELLSIE (8) placed last time (23.68) at this track in a Grade 5, finishing third and beaten 6 lengths. Unbeaten in two runs from this draw. Makes strong appeal on best. KINGSBRAE SARAH (3) looks close to another win after finishing second last time (16.94) at this track. Ran one of the fastest times on the program last start despite finishing in the minors. Expected to be in the finish again. BIG WEST (2) can finish much closer after missing a cheque at this track last start.

Big odds last time but gave a huge sight after a scorching early split, grabbed late but holding on to a placing when a 2 length second (16.94) over 300m at this track. Expected to go very well.

Was out of placings last time (24.95) at this track in a Grade 5, finishing seventh and beaten 16 lengths. Yet to win but has placed two times from this draw. Tough line-up and may struggle.

Had been in consistent form with three minors on end before missing the frame last start when fourth (17.17) at this track. Boxed out wide and needs to find best form to feature.
