Gunnedah Race 8 - Ladbrokes Punter Assist
NORTHERN TIGER (2) doesn't win out of turn but looks close to breaking through. Continues to race well, filling the minors at the last three starts, the latest when second (24.86) at this track. Solid record at the distance winning four races. Ran one of the fastest times on the program last start despite finishing in the minors. Can go on with it. CASUAL ESCAPE (1) was out of the placings when fourth last time but prior to that posted an outstanding 19.59 win over 340m at this track. Top win two back and can measure up again. VOLARE ALTO (3) was checked in the run when sixth in a Grade 5 at The Gardens last time over 400m, finishing 12 lengths from the winner (23.27). Has Box 3 this time where she has a win. Worth following up. MISS CRAWLEY (7) can return to form after missing the top-three at this circuit last time out.

Won two starts back over 340m at this track. Last start he finished 4th in a Grade 5 on December 31 over 431m at this track behind Slightly Psycho beaten 4.5 lengths (25.08). Draw likely to suit. Capable of a strong show.

Finished in the minors last time in a Grade 5 at this track when a one length second but did run a slick 24.86 over the 431m trip. Looms as the one to beat this time.

Was out of placings last time (23.27) at The Gardens in a Grade 5, finishing sixth and beaten 12 lengths. Super consistent from the draw with a win and two places from three starts. Leading chance.

Missed the frame last start when a 6 length fourth (25.57) at this track. Previous form sound including a win three back at this track. Has ability but this tough and will need some luck to feature.
