Dubbo Race 3 - Castlereagh Hotel Mdn Plate
CASTRO (2) has caught the eye in both runs back, particularly last start when rattling home to miss by a head here. Peaking now and will relish the rise to the mile. Clearly the one to beat. REAL HOUSEWIVES (9) got things straight on back last time at Tamworth when closing off sharply into the placings. Has found it hard to break the ice but gets a good chance to here. LAGOON (7) has mixed her form but boasts solid peaks. Carries a fitness edge and is sure to be competitive. DUNSTALL THE GUN (3) has been warming nicely late from sticky draws but gets the chance to settle closer and gets in well with the claim. Don't underestimate. COBOCCO (5) is proving tough to read but has claims if presented on-song.

Most recently got back early 8th of 10 at Tamworth Mdn on January 22 over 1600m, 8 len behind Lone Star Dream with 52.5kg at $31. Before that 7th of 12 at this track Cl1-Sw on January 12 over 1618m, 4 len behind Yorkel carrying 56.5kg at $151. Impossible to make a case.

Third-up today. First-up eased back early on 3rd in a small field at this track Ctry Mdn on January 12 over 1318m, 2 len behind Black Nature carrying 59kg at $15. Last start 2nd of 11 at this track Mdn-Sw on February 2 over 1400m, head behind Maximum Ride with 59kg at $4. Fitter now and making headway. Hard to beat on the back of that sort of form.

Last start 3rd of 11 at Parkes Ctry Mdn-Sw on January 24 over 1600m, 2.25 len behind Deepfield King carrying 54kg at $11. The race before that from last on the turn 8th of 12 at this track Cl1-Sw on January 12 over 1618m, 4 len behind Yorkel carrying 55kg at $31. Capable of building on that performance and she looks one of the main chances.
