Btc Constructions Christmas Cup Best 8 H Division2

Prize Money: $2,490

CALL WAITING (2) is worth forgiving last start after finishing fifth (31.96) at this track over 537m. Solid record here at the distance winning three races. The form out of last race has been strong. Can atone. WOLF MAN (5) turned in a plain effort last time when seventh at this track over 537m behind NORA'S BOY (32.23) in a OPEN. Has never been out of the placings from two starts out of this box. Should be about the mark. NORA'S BOY (1) used the rails draw to advantage to get home last time at this track over 383m (22.33), scoring by a nose. Expecting another good run. BLUEY LA LA (8) was out of the frame here most recently but can atone.

Good effort to win last start by a nose over 383m at this track in a handy (22.33), beating Mermaid Shimmer. This appears within his reach.

Latest effort finished 5th in a OPEN on December 1 over 537m at this track behind Nora's Boy beaten 5.5 lengths (31.96). Strong form emerging from the that last run. Leading chance.

Finished fourth (18.87) last start at this track. Prior to that had recorded three minor placings in a row. Has a solid record off the tricky draw but will need to find best.

Missed the frame latest (32.23) when seventh over 537m at this track in a OPEN. Placed at all two starts from this draw. Key chance and should go close.

Didn't make the placings last time at this track (22.67) in a Grade 5 /MDN, finishing a 6 length fourth. Has two wins and two placings from six starts from the draw. Has ability and should be around the money.
