Tamworth Race 7

Vale Lindy Macgill

Prize Money: $6,936

VINCENTIUS MAXIMUS (1) recorded back-to-back placings from second row draws before a solid fifth at Newcastle last start. He has recorded a win and three placings in four attempts here and should get every chance from the ace draw. ASHLEYS BLUE CHIP (10) raced parked before drawing clear for an authoritative win last start at this circuit, cruising home by 21 metres. Cops a tougher draw on the back row but she is hard to knock off that last performance. PURE DRAGON (2) led and kept going in a resuming win. Up in grade but draws well again and is building a strong record here. SUPERBON (5) hasn't been far away of late so is in the mix.

Hard to fault of late. Last start won by 21 m (Fr4) at this track (2:25.30) beating Paratrouper in NR up to 57 on March 27 at $2.80 at the bell was leading 1.1m 2WNC. Tricky draw but among the main hopes again.
