Gordonvale Race 1 - Top Skips Mdn Plate
HITCHEDINMANHATTAN (3) knuckled down strongly to get within a nose of the winner in third last start over 950m at Cairns. Should be winding up late again. CHARM TELLER (5) finished sixth two runs back then did well last start but found one better over 1000m at Mt Garnet, beaten only a head after being in the firing line on the bend. Finds a suitable race and can play a major role. ELSPHERE (2) knuckled down strongly to get within a neck of the winner in third last start over 1000m at Mt Garnet when resuming after a break. Sure to be thereabouts. MISSIN' DE QUO (4) settled well back and never threatened when sixth over 1050m at Mackay last time out. Best figures measure up nicely. Solid top-three prospects.
