Geelong Race 8 - Mme Slat Gates

GUNAI NUGGET (1) produced a moderate run last time when sixth at this track over 400m behind Starship Atlas (23.26) in a Grade 6. Scored at his previous run. Should bounce back. MARSHALL BEAR (7) flew the lids from the middle with an impressive turn of foot, going on to clock 22.56 when a 3.5 lengths winner over 400m at this track. Must be included in calculations. NEVER LOOK BACK (2) is worth forgiving last start after finishing fourth (30.75) in a Mix 6/7 H at The Meadows over 525m. Key runner who gets her chance to atone. CROWN ARYA (6) is another with top-three prospects.

Backs up after winning by 0.8 lengths at this track (23.22) beating Dale's Corner in a Grade 7 on March 29 six days ago. Likely to find this a lot tougher and he needs to find another gear.
