CREDULOUS (1) made it two in a row last start when she got the cash by 3.5 metres over 2138m at this track. Has won from leading and trailing in the last two starts so decisions early will be important. Primary contender based on those recent efforts. I GOT CHILLS (9) very consistent, has recorded three wins and two minor placings from the past five starts. Performed well once again when second at his latest appearance over 2138m at this track, beaten a head. Meets a similar line up and he can take this out. STUDLEIGH PUNTER (10) faces the second row this time in but didn't do a bad job when fifth over 1660m at this track last time out and can win with the right race tempo. DRAGON (3) has the front row draw for the first time in several starts, is worth some thought after his last-start sixth over 1660m at this track on September 13.

YAHOO
JACK BUTLER 5YO BAY HORSE G J Minns Resumes today. His previous first-up run was successful when he won by 2.25 m as favourite when quickly away, (Fr2) at Newcastle (1:54.70) beating Fire And Sword in NR up to 63 on July 5 2024 at $2.20. Recent trials will help bring him on but a lack of race-fitness might work against. |
