Dubbo Race 5 - Happy Birthday Brad
SHORTY (1) has found the minor placings here at last couple of runs, finishing second last time beaten 4.5 lengths (23.28). Boasts a strong record from this draw with two wins and two minor placings from five starts. Racing well and deserves a win. MOTOR CITY SONNY (5) has a strong record this trip with five wins and six placings from 13 starts. Below best last time at The Gardens (23.54) in a Grade 5, finishing a 9 length fifth. Looks a key chance on best figures. CHUCK KEEPING (3) goes very well over this track and trip including two wins. Comes off a (22.89) win last time, scoring by 0.8 lengths in a Grade 5 over 400m at this track. Makes strong appeal on best. GRAND ARTIST (2) should bounce back after an unplaced effort here recently.

Was out of the placings last time but the start prior finished in the minors when second (18.57) over 318m at this track. Has a low draw and is worth plenty of thought.

Eye-catching performance leading throughout to score by a 0.8 lengths in a Grade 5 last start at this track, clocking a solid 22.89 over the 400m trip. Rates a top chance again if runs up to latest.

Won two starts back when well in the market at The Gardens over 400m. Last start finished 5th in a Grade 5 on October 18 over 400m at The Gardens behind Songar Oscar beaten 9 lengths (23.54). Strongly fancied last start but safely held. Deserves another chance.

Has not shown much in recent runs. Could only manage fifth last time out over 400m at this track. Doesn't profile as a likely winner.
