Canberra Race 1 - Country 2 City Metal Roofing Plate (C1)
MORTLAKE (2) is a former UK galloper who's had three metro outings for the Bjorn Baker stable. His form is good enough, and he's still well shy of his best. The longer trip is ideal, and he's hard to go past. BARDETTE (7) was quickly back on track, beaten 1L here over 1750m. She's still a Maiden but sits down in the weights and will be in the finish. DARKEN (1) deserved his Maiden win at Moruya. He's just missed this track/trip prior and keeps the handy 2kg claim. He races forward and also has quinella claims. ZOUWASE (4) is in Canberra's premiership-winning stable and may need the longer journey. Fourth up now and has been racing well below his best.

Racing well recently. At the latest run won by a nose at Moruya Mdn-Sw July 21 over 1660m on a rain affected track defeating Think I Do with 57kg at $3.90. The start before that 3rd of 9 at this track Cl1-Sw on July 4 over 1900m, 1.1 len behind Due Calzini with 53kg at $61. Rises in weight but still holds plenty of appeal.
