Prize Money: $2,310

JOHNNY RED (8) boasts a strong record this course with 12 wins and eight minors from 31 tries. Recorded a 4.5 lengths win (21.87) in a NG last time at Gosford. Expected to be in the finish. WINLOCK PIPER (4) was in the placings last time but shapes well for this on his strong win the start prior, getting around this track over 400m in 22.82. Expecting another bold showing. SOLO FERNANDO (2) produced an impressive win last time in quickest of the meeting when scoring by one length (18.21) at Richmond. Looks suited and has winning claims again. MORE CRACKERS (1) cannot be ruled out.

Won two starts back when well in the market at Taree Super Track over 525m. Last start finished 3rd over 525m at Taree Super Track beaten 5 lengths (30.70) behind Yogen Bale in a NG on April 23. Looks a solid contender.

Good effort to win last start by 0.8 lengths over 350m at Grafton in a handy (20.04), beating Demon Kingsbrae. Racing well and can win again.

Comments

Good effort to score just four days ago over 388m at Gosford by 4.5 lengths in a NG. Has run hot time here with a 22.47 PB at the distance. Key chance.
