Charlton Race 5

North West Ag Services Trot

Prize Money: $4,000

RAKERO WARRIOR NZ (9) turned things around at his latest appearance when he scored by 13 metres over 2190m at Maryborough. Meets a similar line up so he can make it two on the bounce. BLACKRANGE GLORY (8) resumes here after closing his last campaign with a seventh at Geelong on September 12. Expect him to be prominent. BEAUTIFUL SUNRISE (4) comes right into contention after scoring last start by 1.4 metres at Bendigo over 2150m. RASTAMON (7) is worth some thought after his last-start fifth over 1690m at Maryborough on February 11.

Eight-year-old gelding showed improvement last start and is backing up after three days. 3rd (Fr1) over 2180m at Terang beaten 50 m by The Priestess (2:45.40) in NR up to 50 on February 13 at $81. The race before was not as impressive when failed to finish at Stawell on February 9 over 1785m. Not keen.

Last start 5th (Sr3) over 1690m at Maryborough, at the bell was 5th-9.8 beaten 12 m by Dona Amalia (2:06.60) in NR up to 49 on February 11 at $10. Before that, a solid effort when 2nd (Sr2) over 1690m at Maryborough was 4th-4.6 at the bell, beaten 3.5 m by Noble Count (2:06.60) in NR 46 to 51 on February 4 at $9. Deserves another chance.

Last start 5th (Sr1) over 1609m at Cranbourne was 6th-15 at the bell, beaten 16 m by At The Distance (2:00.50) in NR up to 49 on February 8 at $16. At his previous start was well beaten after breaking at Maryborough on January 28. Finds a nice race and can improve.
