Ballina Race 4 - Tab Country Boosted (Bm58)
DANCE GAVIN DANCE (1) recorded two comfortable wins over today's course and distance then was thrown in the deep end in the Group 3 Gold Coast Guineas last start and failed. Back in a more suitable race today and can return to winning ways. DEEP STEALTH (6) caught the eye when fresh from a spell over this trip at Port Macquarie last time out, making up many lengths to be beaten narrowly. Loves racing here and has placed at both second-up runs. Hard to fault the profile. PRESTIGE PAK (2) led but tired late to finish third when fresh from an 18-week spell over today's course and distance recently. Will be harder to hold out with that run under the belt. THE LUPERCAL (5) has improved at his last couple of runs since being ridden more aggressively. Doesn't win often but has a 60% top three strike rate at this trip so worth an each-way ticket. BACK ON DE QUO (3) is a track specialist coming off an eight-week freshen-up. Must be considered carefully.

Comes here off a 30-day let-up. Last start ran last of 14 at Gold Coast in the G3 Gc Guineas on May 9 over 1200m, 12 len behind Beadman with 57kg at $151. The start before that raced right near the speed and boxed on; won by 1.5 len at this track Ctry Cl1 April 14 over 1015m defeating Too Hot To Torque carrying 57.5kg at $3.40. Finds a nice race and is worth another chance.

Second run back. First-up after three months 3rd of 11 at Grafton Bm50 on May 16 over 1115m, in the wet; 0.9 len behind Prince Rupert carrying 56kg at $41. Previously second-up got back early 6th of 11 at Grafton Cl1 on September 22 over 1006m, on a slow track; 4 len behind All Too Wild carrying 55kg at $151. Harder here though and isn't among the top hopes today.
