WAMBOYNE MACHETE (2) is on a quick back-up after continuing his good form with a fourth at Penrith on Thursday. Will enjoy the return to a circuit where he has won both attempts. Draws to enjoy the favours and that should see him hard to stop. THREEBUSHELSOFOATS (1) has come from wider barriers than this to finish second in her last two outings at Tamworth. The ace draw can see her competitive again. IM LORD TOMMY (8) cops a wide barrier but is in fine form having put two wins together at Tamworth. NEXT TO ME (4) is worth some thought after he was beaten less than 5m in a higher-graded race here on Tuesday.
