Tab Rewards (Bm74) 2200m

Track: GOOD 4   Clear   Rail: Out 5m 1000m-W/P. Out 3m Remainder, 1400m Chute Out 5m. (Pent: 4.74).  

Social Element should lead and possibly Salesman can harass. SOCIAL ELEMENT has excelled over the staying journey's winning his past two. He showed nice determination this track/distance last start to hold off Dylan's Romance and co. This looks a suitable progression and while still in his initial campaign is showing no signs of tapering off. EXOTERIC gives Social Element a kilo for his loss to him a fortnight ago. Form suggests he is up for a race like this and he won't spend a penny from the inside draw. SALESMAN is building a nice record albeit in the Country. Gets in with 50kg after the claim and could sneak a place. With very little pace evident Social Element and Salesman will race on the pace and control the tempo. SOCIAL ELEMENT is an exciting staying prospect for Tulloch Lodge who can chalk up the hat trick here. Settled handy and was a shade too tough last time out over this course and distance. That was just his 4th outing so can improve further into this. SALESMAN stalked the leading pair and never looked in doubt last start over 2000m at Queanbeyan. Faces a stiffer task today but gets a massive 8.5kgs and 9.5kgs off the top pair which must be factored in. EXOTERIC stoked up late to finish 3rd behind Social Element last start in his best run this time in work. Much closer in the weights to the top pick today so will be competitive. Tough to make a case for the others. SUGGESTED PLAY: Social Element for the win.

Continues to improve. Looks suited.

Chasing a hat-trick. Last run tracked on the speed and boxed on steadily; won by a long-neck this track 3yo+ (Bm70) Sep 6 over 2200m defeating Dylan's Romance with 56.5kg. Start before won by 1-3/4 len (slowly away; hampered near 400m) Beaumont (Newcastle) Mdn Plate Aug 26 over 2000m slow going defeating Chilli Beauty with 59kg. This race appears well within the grasp of this bright prospect.
