Delta Downs Race 7 - 5F Stakes
GOING THE DISTANCE (8) finished just 0.3 lengths from the winner in second when returning from a layoff last start over 1006m at this track (Dirt) after racing on the pace. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. CUSTOM SUNSHINE (2) finished seventh over 1006m at this track (Dirt) at her most recent appearance on November 21. Yet to win first up but generally runs well with three minor placings from six tries. Rates highly and is likely to be prominent. DR STRICKLANDS ACE (3) was well-fancied when resuming last start but could only manage seventh, beaten 8 lengths, over 1006m at this track (Dirt). Has a very strong second up record. Ready to find peak form this time. EASY BET (4) finished third two runs back at this track (Dirt) then improved last time out to score by 0.3 lengths over 1308m at this track (Dirt). Finds a suitable race and can build on that last-start success.

Comes off a 57 day let-up. Last start 5th of 8 at this track on December 11 over 1006m, 10 len behind Fouralivia carrying 55kg at $2.40. Before that ran on from midfield and won by 4 len at this track November 13 over 1006m defeating Tiffany's Ferrari carrying 55kg at $2. Better than that recent moderate performance suggests.
