GOING: S(5)

COLLIE HOTEL COLLIE CUP 1280m

Track: SOFT 5   Clear (Max: 13)   Rail: True.  

Good early tempo with Sparks leading the way. TOULON FACTOR (6) scored over this trip at Narromine in a BM66 three runs back. Shouldered 75kgs last start when beaten under a length over the mile at Wean picnics. Drops an incredible 23.5kgs today and returns to his favourite trip. Major player. WATCH ME RUMBLE (4) raced on the speed but couldn't finish off over 1600m at Tamworth last time out. Won't mind coming back in trip. Big threat. SPARKS (10) was unsuited dropping back to 1000m at Wean picnics last start but did a good job to be beaten under a length. Serious chance with the lightweight out of gate one. FOREIGN BROTHER (1) made it three minor placings on the trot when a close third over 1000m at Tamworth recently. In the mix on that form. HIT THE RIM (8) will be giving them a start but should be hitting the line. SUGGESTED PLAY: Backing Toulon Factor.
