Gawler Race 5 - Lyndoch Motors Pace
DONT TELL ALICE (1) has been racing well of late. Finished fifth at his latest appearance over 1800m at Globe Derby Park, beaten 7 metres. No excuses from this advantageous draw. This looks a sterner test than last time but on his best form he is capable of testing his rivals. ALIMONIE (6) produced a good effort at his latest appearance to get home by a narrow margin over 1800m at Globe Derby Park on April 4. His last-start form is good enough to take out a race like this. WELL WELL (3) has to come into calculations on the back of some strong recent form, most recently when fourth at Globe Derby Park over 1800m. Must be included. REACT TO BEAUTY (4) showed pleasing improvement last time out when third over 1660m at Victor Harbor. Include in exotic bets.

Last start was well back in the run when 5th (Fr4) over 1800m after racing wide at Globe Derby Park was 8th-13.2 at the bell, beaten 7 m by Trigger (2:13.10) in NR 40 to 43 on April 4 at $7. Before that, a good run despite getting well back, when 3rd (Fr2) over 1800m at Globe Derby Park beaten 9 m by Balladoro (2:12.20) in NR up to 49 on March 28 at $71. Likely to measure up.

Two back was beaten by 9 m finishing fourth after being driven well back, behind Whata Optimist at Globe Derby Park over 1800m in a NR 43 to 48 on March 23 at $12. Then a handy effort when well beaten into third after a quick start, behind Star Of Willoughby at Victor Harbor over 1660m in a NR up to 43 on April 5 at $4.20. Can play a role in the finish again.

Last start by a nose (Fr5) at Globe Derby Park (2:16.00) beating Mojito Madness in NR up to 39 on April 4 at $6.90 at the bell was leading 0.2. Can go back-to-back.

Second up after running 6th (Fr1) over 2070m after showing early pace at this track, at the bell was 4th-5.1 beaten 10 m by Linxx (2:33.30) in NR 41 to 46 on March 30 at $101. Hard to make a case in this field.
