Gunnedah Race 6

Farrell's 4X2 Dog Biscuits

Prize Money: $1,190

HIS FERNANDO (1) was well supported last start but didn't deliver when seventh (20.37), beaten 5.5 lengths. Was in the money the start prior. Remains without a win from the draw but has been in the placings three times from four attempts. Has ability and is a key runner. SPIRIT CHANA (2) was sent out long odds last time but rocketed out of the boxes with a fast early sectional and gave a sight before being swallowed up late, finishing a nose second (20.00) over 340m at this track. Remains without a win from the draw but has been in the placings two times from four attempts. Leading player again. PRINCE VINNIE (8) has mixed form recently, finishing fifth (30.69) in a Grade 5 at The Gardens latest but did run well two back when in the frame. Can find the frame this time. BALLINA (6) is a last-start placegetter who should be thereabouts.

Well supported here last start but couldn't repay punters, finishing finished 7th on June 18 over 340m at this track behind Cody The Champ beaten 5.5 lengths (20.37) in a Grade 5. Placed two back at this track. Looks a strong winning hope.

Placed last time (20.00) at this track in a Grade 5, finishing second and beaten a nose. Has two minors from four starts from box 2. Looks well placed and should feature.

Was prominent from the outset and held on well to win at this track over 340m in 20.13 last start, beating Solo Solo. Among the chances and worth following up.

Solid performance to post a big 4 lengths win at this track over 340m (20.02) beating Patchy Rum in Grade 5 on June 25. Can't recommend against this lot.
