GOING: S(5)

Beaudesert Raceday 21 AUGUST Class 5 Handicap 1400m

Track: Soft 5     Rail: 3m Entire.  

Moderate tempo with Pareto leading the way and a few others keeping in touch. Funny race with most of the chances coming off last start failures. WAKU WAKU (3) raced wide and couldn't make an impression last start over 1500m at Muswellbrook. Scored three back over 1350m at Wyong and has three wins from six at or around today's trip. Can bounce back. PARETO (1) is the form runner, most recently clocking in second over 1200m at the Gold Coast in a Class 5. Very fit and would be top pick only he is unproven at this sort of distance. HOLLYWOOD EPIC (6) went close two back at Toowoomba then was too bad to be true at the same venue at his last appearance five weeks ago. Worth another chance while fresh with ace hoop Jace McMurray taking over. RUBYDOO (7) had been going well until a poor effort over 1666m at Ipswich last Saturday. This looks a more suitable assignment. TREASURER (9) cruised home in a Class 4 over this course and distance two back then was terrible at Toowoomba last time. Can improve off a five-week let-up. SUGGESTED PLAY: Waku Waku on top but not super confident.

Recent form sound. Most recently 2nd in a small field at Gold Coast Cl5 on June 13 over 1200m, on heavy track; 2 len behind North Pole carrying 60kg at $3. The run before that won by 4.5 len at this track Hib Cup Cl3 May 23 over 1200m on a soft track defeating Fortuneer with 60.5kg at $1.60. Racing very well and should be in the finish.

Third-up today and won third-up previously. Resuming gave a sight but was run down late 2nd of 7 at this track Bm65 on May 23 over 1100m, slow going 0.7 len behind Speedy One with 59kg at $6.50. Second run from a spell ran last in a small field at Murwillumbah Bm66 on June 8 over 1200m, in the wet; 16 len behind Too Hot To Torque carrying 58.5kg at $7.50. Seriously doubt his chances in this.
