Mount Gambier Race 6 - Richard Ray Insurance Brokers Pace (Sky 2)

COLOSSAL HOPE (2) made an immediate impact on debut, drawing deeper and working before scoring by a neck at Terang. Open to natural improvement and the ace draw gives him every chance to make it two from two. SHIFU (5) was very good last start when he drew wide and covered ground early before scoring by a head at Terang. Draws a few spots closer to the pegs so he is a major player again. LOUISE LUCK (6) hasn't featured in two starts since a spell but has only once missed a place in eight tries at this circuit and distance and may be ready to show more. GRINNING REACTOR (3) resumes after four-and-a-half months but gets a good draw. Looking for a good effort to kick off this prep.

Was on debut on the speed and boxed on steadily; won by a neck after showing early speed, (Fr5) at Terang (2:43.50) beating Jilliby Kymy Lou in MAIDEN on October 20 at $41 at the bell was 2nd-2.8. The ace draw can see him go on with it.

Finished last campaign with a win here but hasn't been as effective this campaign. First-up effort surrendered the lead and finished 10th (Fr1) over 1700m at Horsham, beaten 17 m by Maxy Can Dance (2:03.80) in NR 50 to 55 on October 6 at $14. Then last start broke in score up and was out of position at the start 8th (Fr2) over 1800m at Globe Derby Park, beaten 45 m by Emrites (2:12.00) in 4yo+ NR up to 50 M on October 13 at $9. Goes well at this circuit and distance so may be ready to show more.
