Longreach Race 5

Open Hcp

Prize Money: $12,000

HIGHGROUND (5) continues to race well with a win two back at Blackall before finishing a nose away in second last time over 1000m at Barcaldine. Likely to push forward and race on the pace. Will prove tough to beat. HERE HE LOOMS (3) is back after a break of six months. Started the last campaign impressively when in the placings over 1200m at this track. Sure to make his presence felt. GREGARIOUS (7) was well in the market first up from a spell last start over 1200m at Barcaldine but was safely held in seventh, beaten 12 lengths. Should be prominent from the outset. Will be in this for a long way. HEYINGTON STATION (2) finished 13th over 1600m at Doomben at his most recent appearance on December 6. Definite top-three chance.
