Cootamundra Race 6

Riverina Ford (Bm66)

Prize Money: $29,000

GRANDE BELLEZZA (8) wasn't far away at Hawkesbury after racing on speed and returns to the country circuit where she thrives. With the draw to suit, she looks primed to bounce back to winning ways. PLEASURIZE (4) was dominant leading throughout at Leeton, taking her record to three wins from five. The claim offsets the weight rise and she rates as a major threat again. DOLLY (7) is a consistent mare resuming over a pet trip for the Spackman camp. Produced some strong efforts last campaign that measure right up for this. Sure to be involved in the finish if presented on-song. HELLINDA (10) lifted last start with a close second at Corowa and with Boudvillain back aboard is among the key chances. SUTTON VELLA (3) has been leaving herself with too much to do but a more positive ride could see sharp improvement.

Second run from a spell ran last of 9 at Leeton Bm82 on September 23 over 1150m, 7 len behind Future Fund carrying 56kg at $11. Unlikely to threaten.

Last start 9th of 11 at Canberra Tab Fed Open on September 19 over 1000m, 3.5 len behind Vella's Best carrying 55kg at $10. Before that 4th of 12 at Canberra Acton Open Bm85 on August 22 over 1206m, 2 len behind Getty with 55kg at $9. Best form stacks up nicely so worth another chance.

Recent form sound. Most recently won by 1.5 len at Leeton Cl2 September 23 over 1150m defeating Dekadance with 57kg at $2.80. The run before that 2nd in a small field at Queanbeyan Ctry Bm58 on September 9 over 1000m, nose behind Anthracia carrying 59kg at $2.40. Finds another nice race and should be right there at the business end again.

Mare back from a spell of five months. Has placed previously first up from a break. Finished off last campaign sixth of 13 at Wagga Ctry Bm74 May 2 over 1200m, 4.5 len behind So You Pence with 55kg at $11. When resuming last campaign second of 11 at Wagga Cl1 September 5 2024 over 1000m, a neck behind Take The Rap with 56.5kg at $4.50. Consistent mare that can give this a big shake.

Dual acceptor. Last start 5th of 10 at Hawkesbury F&M Bm64 on September 25 over 1100m, 2.5 len behind Nepo Baby with 57kg at $13. The race before that won by 2 len at Gundagai Bm66 September 7 over 1180m on a soft track defeating Astunner with 55kg at $6. No surprise to see her back in the winners' circle.
