Mt Gambier Race 5 - Border Cup (Heat 2) (Sky 1)
VILLAGE VOICE (5) had been building to a win and it arrived last start when she scored by 4 metres over 1680m at Terang. Tackles a similar assignment and she can make it two on the trot. HEAVY METAL HAMMER (6) has been racing well of late. Finished fourth at his latest appearance over 1780m at this track, beaten 5 metres. Finds a tougher race but a trip to the winners' circle is not out of the question. GRINNING BEACH BOY (4) comes right into contention after scoring last start by 3 metres at Terang over 1680m. BAYSIDE VICTORY (2) has a handy gate and is worth some thought based on his third over 1780m at this track two runs ago.
