Muswellbrook Race 10

Muswellbrook Cup Heats - Oct 30

Prize Money: $1,190

MARVIN MONELLI (1) goes very well here starting 10 times for six wins and two minors. Recorded a half a length win (19.58) in a Grade 5 last time at this track. Looks the one to beat with even luck. PARK KEY POP (3) showed little early speed at his last couple, the latest finishing fourth (19.81) in a Grade 4 at this track. Has a good record here at this journey. Expected to run well. PARK KEY PAW (2) placed last time and is worth some thought.

Comments

Was prominent from the outset and held on well to win at this track over 336m in 19.58 last start, beating Sattler Lane. Likes the rails so won at his only start from this box. Top chance to make it two from two.

Good effort last time when third (19.79) over 336m at this track. Drawn close to the inside. One of the better hopes.

Should get a clear run from the wide draw. Wasn't impressive last start but does have a great record at this track and distance, forgive the latest run. Has solid claims on her best form.
