Pinjarra Race 5 - Darren Christie's 'Cheers To 50 Years' Birthday Hcp (C1)
TOUSLED CROWN (3) settled midfield then worked home well without ever posing a threat last start over 1500m at Ascot. Cherry ripe after three runs back and an extra 100m suits. Looks ready to win. GINGER AND TONIC (2) turned in a real eye-catcher when third over this distance at Ascot two back. Less effective last time when extended to 1800m. Has only won once in 23 runs but this looks a nice race for her. SKY RIVER (7) went to the front a long way out then tired to finish fifth recently over this journey at Ascot. Won her maiden here at 1600m last prep. Can play a role with three runs now under the belt this time in work. ACES TO WIN (4) went a little better last start and has placed two from two here so further improvement is on the cards. AUTHORATIVE (1) might find the mile a bit sharp but is worth throwing in the exotics.

Comes here off a 43-day let-up. At the latest run 2nd of 8 at Bunbury Cl1 on November 13 over 2000m, head behind Neap Tide with 56kg at $5.50. The race before that eased back early on 6th of 10 at Northam Cl1 on October 26 over 1600m, 6 len behind Battle Commander carrying 59kg at $21. Good each-way prospect.

At the latest run 4th of 10 at Ascot Cl1 on December 17 over 1500m, 2 len behind My Harv with 57.5kg at $5.50. The start before that 7th of 16 at Belmont Park Cl1 on December 3 over 1300m, 2.25 len behind Glanced carrying 57.5kg at $17. Rock hard fit after three runs back and from the good gate makes plenty of appeal.
