Globe Derby Race 9 - 2026 Australian Drivers Championship October 3 @ Globe Pace
TUFFASNAILS (4) was far from disgraced at his latest appearance over 1800m at this track, beaten just 2.5 metres into fourth. Has the ability to take this out. DASHING COWBOY (1) finished seventh at Port Pirie two runs ago before finishing eighth at his latest appearance over 1609m at Port Pirie, beaten 35 metres. No excuses from this advantageous draw. Big chance if anywhere near his best. PARADIGM (9) didn't do a bad job when fifth over 1800m at this track last time out. Each-way claims. ROAD STAR (6) disappointed last time when ninth over 1800m at this track. Can turn things around.

Capable of better than we have seen lately. Last start 8th (Fr3) over 1609m after showing early pace at Port Pirie, beaten 35 m by Keilah (1:57.10) on September 21 at $10. The run previous 7th (Fr1) over 1609m after showing early pace at Port Pirie beaten 30 m by Sportsflight (1:57.50) on September 8 at $19. Certainly worth another chance.

Two back was beaten by 6 m finishing third after a quick start, behind Meet Me At The Beach at this track over 1800m on September 22 at $15. Then a handy effort when well beaten into second after being driven well back, behind Seaside Lady at this track over 2230m on September 26 at $18. Should be there at the business end.

Racing consistently with minor placings at her last two starts at this course. Placed last start surrendered the lead and finished 2nd (Fr1) over 1800m after showing early speed at this track, at the bell was 2nd-6.2 beaten 6 m by Feng Shui Star (2:09.90) on September 19 at $5. Before that 2nd (Fr1) over 2230m after showing early speed at this track, beaten 2 m by Malachite Rock (2:44.00) on September 7 at $4.80. Hard to enthuse in this field.

Backs up 2 days after failing to impress last start; 9th (Fr7) over 1800m at this track, well beaten by Rockin Gemma (2:09.50) in 4yo+ on September 26 at $71. Showed ability the outing before when he won by 1.1 m after showing early speed, (Fr1) at this track (2:14.80) beating Rocknroll Spirit in on September 22 at $4.33. Capable of more than he has shown recently. Leading chance on best form.
