Gunnedah Race 7 - Red Chief Motel
SWIFT ARIEL (1) looks close to another win after finishing second last time (23.21) at Dubbo. Was a winner at her only start from this draw. Well placed and gets her chance. HARA'S ROCKY (8) had been super consistent recording three placings in a row before he was rewarded with a win last time, scoring at this track over 340m (19.84). Winner at his latest appearance in one of the quickest times on the card. Should be in this for a long way. FANTASTIC POWER (4) missed the frame last time at this track but the start prior rocketed around 297m at Dapto in 17.07. Smart winner two back and looks a key chance on that form. UNHURRIED (7) missed the placings here most recently but can sneak into the finish with the right run.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (20.59) in a Grade 4, finishing a 10 length fourth. Yet to win but has placed two times from this draw. Looks a place chance at best.

Didn't finish two back and couldn't make the frame last time when he finished 4th in a Grade 5 on October 1 over 340m at this track behind Lucks A Lady beaten 6 lengths (20.13). Others preferred on this occasion.

Did a good job two starts back at Dapto to win by 1.5 lengths in 17.07, beating Cheeky Cheese. Last start finished 4th on September 24 over 340m at this track behind Kiando Venom beaten 5 lengths (19.89) in a Grade 5. Look for improvement. Not out of it.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage fifth last time out over 318m at Dubbo. Will be tested in this company.
