Maitland Race 7

2025 Hunter Valley Outdoor Show May 23,24,25

Prize Money: $3,110

COOL STORY (1) failed to come into contention last start at Wentworth Park, but prior to that won by a neck at Bulli (26.49) beating Shinkansen in a Grade 5 on May 13. Should be very hard to beat this time. OREO SMORE (2) has missed the frame at his last two but did run well three back when third (19.96) in a Grade 5 at Bulli. This looks easier and expected to improve sharply. MY RUNAWAY (3) comes off an average performance last start when sixth at Bulli over 472m behind COOL STORY (27.17) in a Grade 5. Leading chance. GYPSY ARIANNA (4) can find the frame without surprising.

Comments

Won two starts back when well in the market at Bulli over 472m. Last start finished 5th over 520m at Wentworth Park beaten 7 lengths (30.18) behind History's Coming in a Grade 5 on May 17. Still to win from this draw but has been in the placings three times. Top chance.

Needs to do more than recent efforts, the latest a sixth over 340m at Bulli. Doesn't look smart enough to threaten the top few.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage fourth last time out over 320m at Richmond. Will not find this easy. Not keen.
