Globe Derby Race 8 - Sa Botra Pace
MY ULTIMATE BANJO (4) finished fifth last start over 1609m at Gawler, beaten 9 metres, after a modest fourth at Victor Harbor the run prior. Meets a similar quality field and is good enough to take out a race like this. SPIRIT OF MARMYTE NZ (2) made a good start to her career two weeks ago, beaten a nose into second over 1800m at this track. Sure to enjoy an economical run from this draw. Meets a similar line up so she can keep the ball rolling. BINN DANCING (8) is in the mix following a fifth at her most recent appearance over 1800m at this track. MURRA LANE (9) is the best of the rest after finishing runner-up over 1800m at this track last time out.

Three-year-old filly lining up for the second time. At debut good run despite getting well back, when 2nd (Fr2) over 1800m at this track, at the bell was 3rd-6.8 beaten a nose by Sonny Rennt (2:18.10) in MAIDEN on May 4 at $1.45. Nicely drawn and open to improvement.

Having his second run back from a spell. Good run when 2nd (Fr2) over 1800m after showing early pace at this track beaten 40 m by Delightful Dream (2:11.50) in MAIDEN on May 11 at $13. One of the better chances.

Two back was well beaten into seventh after being driven well back, behind Shoreline Dream at this track over 1800m in a 2 LIFETIME WINS on May 4 at $51. Then a handy effort when beaten by 8 m finishing second after a quick start, behind Ella Kate at this track over 1800m in a 2 LIFETIME WINS on May 11 at $7. Can continue the good form and take this out.
