---|---|---|---|---|
Hot pace certain with Champers Girl, Mr Bingo and Small Town keen to take up the running. YIRRKALA (12) lightly raced mare with a ton of ability who resumed with a fighting third over 1000m at Scone on April 16. Looks to have strengthened up over the break and gets her chance from the good draw. STENSON WALLMAN (6) Invader gelding resuming after finishing third behind the handy Mad Darcey over 1000m at Gosford on February 1. Since fitted with a recent trial placing over 800m at Hawkesbury on April 16. Can sprint well fresh. BONJOUR RUPERT (11) goes well this course and distance and back in trip today after finishing eighth over 1410m at Grafton on April 14. Look for him charging late. MR BINGO (3) resumes today from a lengthy break after holding on well to secure third over 1000m at Wyong on August 3. Will appreciate the claim from the inside gate. SUGGESTED PLAY: Box Quinella 12,6,11,3.
