Gawler Race 1 - The Bunyip Open Stake Pr1 Division1
IMAGINE THE FUN (1) missed the frame but clocked a strong 22.83 when fourth over 400m at this track last start in a OPEN. Should be in this for a long way. DIOGO KEEPING (8) is yet to miss the placings in an excellent record this trip which boasts 17 wins. Scored by 1.75 lengths last time (21.96) in a Grade 3/4/5 over 395m at Murray Bridge. Can hit the frame with the right run. DAKOTA RYLEN (7) crossed over from out wide but caught the leaders turning before drawing clear to score (22.67) at this track in a Grade 5 over 400m. Goes very well from this draw with eight wins and four minor placings from 17 starts. One of the prime contenders. PARABOLE RICO (4) is a last-start placegetter at this track and distance – sure to have admirers.

Found some support last start but struggled and finished 4th on July 19 over 400m at this track behind Princess Tilley beaten 1.75 lengths (22.83) in a OPEN. Placed two back at Murray Bridge Straight. Has clocked a scorching 22.26 here at this trip. Leading player.

Good effort to win last start by one length over 400m at this track in a handy (22.95), beating Black Amethyst. Will find this a bit tougher, will not find this easy. Not keen.

Was edged out last time at this track when beaten just a nose but did clock an excellent 22.71 for the 400m trip. Prefer others this time.

Won two starts back after racing on the pace at this track over 400m in 22.71. Couldn't repeat the feat last time out when sixth over 400m at this track at OPEN level. Happy to risk in this.

Talented type with an excellent strike rate at this journey. Has been prominent in the run and duly saluted at his last couple, most recently over 395m at Murray Bridge in a handy 21.96 beating Destroying. Unbeaten in five starts from this box. Key runner.
