Kempsey Race 4

Happy 50th Evan 'Feathers' Jones (Bm58)

Prize Money: $16,000

FARRAIGE (3) saluted at Port Macquarie two runs ago. Decent effort last time out when fourth over 2000m at Taree, beaten 2 lengths after doing his best work late. Yet to miss the frame in three starts over this course and distance. Has the class to produce another win. STROBING (1) did little and finished tenth over 1500m at Tuncurry last start, a less impressive effort than his fourth at Muswellbrook the run before. Has the class to produce a better result here. FLASH PRINCE (5) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1800m at Gold Coast, beaten 1.5 lengths into seventh. Finds the right race this time and can turn things around. BIANCO NERO (7) pushed forward from a wide draw last time out and was prominent for a long way before fading to finish fifth over 1512m at Port Macquarie. Worth including.

At the latest run sat behind the speed prior to fading to run last of 10 in a Cup Prel Bm85 at Tuncurry on August 24 over 1500m, on a slow track; 5.5 len behind House Of Cards carrying 53kg at $26. The start before that 4th of 8 in a Bm66 at Muswellbrook on August 9 over 1500m, 3.5 len behind Invasive Dreams with 57kg at $9. Finds a nice race this time and is right in contention.

Last start raced on the speed throughout before fading 7th of 10 in a Cl4 at Gold Coast on August 28 over 1800m, 1.5 len behind Roguery carrying 54kg at $41. The race before that ran second last in a small field in a Open Bm85 at Murwillumbah on August 21 over 2020m, slow going 6 len behind Amplify with 55kg at $71. Encouraging effort last start. Has ability and is among the leading hopes.
