Gunnedah Race 4

We Stand With Tasmania

Prize Money: $3,290

BENTLEY FISHER (7) is a progressive type who recorded his 8th career win last time out (24.88) at this track. Goes very well here at the trip finding the frame in each of five starts. Goes well out of this box with a win and two minor placings. Can continue on his winning ways. SLIGHTLY PSYCHO (2) placed last time (22.75) at The Gardens in a NG, finishing third and beaten 1.5 lengths. Has already won four times from this draw. Can feature with the right run. JAKEY BLUE (8) boasts a consistent overall record including eight wins from 21 starts, but missed the frame latest when fourth (25.39) over 431m at this track. Solid record here including six wins. Best form too dangerous to ignore. Have to include. LAURIE'S RUPEE (5) form at this distance reads well.

Charged out of the boxes with a fast early sectional but gathered in and finished in the minors when third (22.75) at The Gardens over 400m. Has a very good strike-rate out of box 2, scoring four times. Go close.

Found the going tougher last start when third over 340m at this track. That followed a win two back in 19.87 beating Blazing Leo over 340m at this track. Happy to risk this time.

Won two starts back then raced on the pace last start when he finished 2nd on December 3 over 431m at this track behind Bentley Fisher beaten 0.8 lengths (24.94) in a Grade 4/5. Goes well at this course, coming out of a very strong form race. Can feature with the right run.
