Bathurst Race 6

Hynash Group Gold Crown Heat Four

Prize Money: $11,832

GOCCIADORO (7) overcame a similar barrier to this when kicking off his career with a win over a similar distance at Wagga, working to the front before scoring by 2.8 metres. That suggests he can roll forward again from this wide starting position. Looks promising and can deliver again. ATOMIK CRUNCH (1) opened his career in the best possible manner two-and-a-half weeks ago, coming from the back row to score by 7.7m at this circuit and distance. Likely to get all the favours from the ace draw so could strike again. SEASTRIKE (10) won on debut before coming from this barrier for second here last start. Go well again. VEDMID STRIDE (6) is by a leading sire in Art Major and won his latest trial so keep safe.

Last start solid effort when 2nd (Sr2) over 1730m at this track, at the bell was 3rd-5.16 beaten 7 m by Born To Entertain (2:07.30) in 2yo 2 WINs on March 11 at $3.30. Two runs back won by 1.5 m as favourite after showing early speed, (Fr2) at Parkes (2:03.80) beating Stay Mysterious in 2yo No NR CG on February 27 at $2.40. Going along well. Capable of playing a major role.
