Narrabri Race 7

Daisy Water Carrier And Shop 2390 Narrabri Cup

Prize Money: $13,260

CRAFTMANS CHARLIE (7) has been racing without luck. Well held last time out when seventh over 1609m at Menangle. Gets a soft run on the inside of the second line but may need luck at some point. This doesn't look as hard, so he is sure to prove tough to beat. HEAVENLY HOLLY (6) turned in an uncharacteristically poor run last start when 21 metres away in sixth over 2030m at Newcastle. Form prior to that had been solid. Meeting a deeper field this time, but she has the ability to mix it with them. DIDSHEDOIT (5) is close to a win after two successive placings, the latest a second over 1980m at Tamworth. Great chance to break through. SUPERBON (3) has a good draw and is the best of the rest after finishing third over 2560m at this track last time out.

Last start 5th (Sr2) over 1609m at Tamworth, at the bell was 6th-10.8m 2WWC beaten 11 m by You Cannot Hide (1:56.90) in NR up to 50 on April 17 at $4.20. Before that, 6th (Sr4) over 1980m at Tamworth beaten 17 m by Paris Princess (2:26.40) in NR up to 53 on April 3 at $10. Much better gate this time and expected to finish closer.

Two back was well beaten into fourth behind Fast Tracker at Tamworth over 1609m in a 4yo+ NR up to 60 on April 17 at $10. Then a handy effort when beaten by 6 m finishing third after a quick start, behind Fast Tracker at this track over 2560m in a NR up to 70 on April 20 at $8. One of the better chances.

Two back was beaten by 6 m finishing third after being driven well back, behind Seve at Newcastle over 1609m in a NR 68 to 80 on April 4 at $10. Then a handy effort when a close second behind Onehandonebounce at Tamworth over 1980m in a NR up to 70 on April 17 at $4.80. Going well and is a leading player again.

Last start was well beaten into sixth after being driven well back, behind Barnstormer at Newcastle over 2030m in a NR up to 80 on April 11 at $4.40. Performed better the start before where she won by 7 m (Sr4) at Bathurst (2:02.90) beating Alwaysbminnie in 4yo+ No NR M on March 29 at $2.60. Can improve without surprising.

Capable of better than we have seen lately. Last start was driven from back in the field when 7th (Fr6) over 1609m at Menangle beaten 9 m by No Heart Throb (1:51.10) in NR up to 95 on April 12 at $41. The start before was driven from back in the field when 7th (Fr7) over 2300m at Menangle beaten 40 m by Ryans Gangster (2:42.80) in NR up to 95 on April 5 at $12. This looks a nice assignment so watch for a better run.
