Kembla Grange Race 4 - Dean Group Midway Mdn Plate
BOLD BUCKS (6) was sent out as a rock solid $1.65 chance last start at Nowra but after giving away at least six lengths on the bend could not bridge the gap and was beaten in a three-way go. His figures suggest a step up to provincial level is not out of reach. Hard to beat in the wide-open spaces of Kembla. BRUTAL ADVANCE (1) registered his eighth minor placing from 14 runs when a fast finishing second over this course and distance last time out. Cherry ripe after two runs back from a spell. Must win one sooner or later. BASCILICA BABE (9) led for the judge but was headed soon after and finished a distant third over 1300m at Hawkesbury recently. Getting down in the weights and 1200m is a good option. Not out of contention. CLINGER POWER (10) came from near the tail to finish fifth on debut over 1100m at Hawkesbury last start. Better placed here over 1200m so expect some improvement on that effort. ROCKS OR DIAMONDS (12) will find this easier than her moderate debut in town.

Second-up 2nd of 10 in a Mid Mdn-Sw at this track on September 26 over 1200m, 3 len behind Screen Icon carrying 59kg at $7.50. Clear danger.

Dual acceptor. Jumped at a huge quote at debut, ran second last of 10 in a Mid Mdn-Sw at this track on September 26 over 1200m, 9 len behind Screen Icon with 59kg at $101. Has a lot of work to do.

Resuming off four-and-a-half months break after having had one race start. At debut last start ran second last of 11 in a 3yo+ Mdn at Newcastle on May 23 over 900m, on rain affected going; 5 len behind Zouboy carrying 59kg at $31. Had three recent trials to get fit for this. Last trial fourth at Goulburn in a 750m trial on September 24. Might be better off following this run.

Third-up today. Resuming ran last in a small field in a Cge Mdn-Sw at Gosford on August 28 over 1100m, slow going 3.5 len behind Peyton with 56.5kg at $16. Last start 3rd of 10 in a Cge Mdn-Sw at Nowra on September 20 over 1200m, head behind Frosty Bangers with 54.5kg at $1.65. Capable of a better showing. Progressing nicely and is sure to prove tough to beat despite going back up to provincial grade.

Last start led but faded 3rd of 10 in a Prov Mdn at Hawkesbury on September 24 over 1300m, 4 len behind Lion Hunt with 56.5kg at $12. The run before that crossed from a wide gate to settle just off the pace but gave ground when 5th of 12 in a Mdn at Muswellbrook on September 8 over 1280m, 2.75 len behind Force March carrying 56kg at $8. Heading the right way and gets her chance to get off the mark.
