Prize Money: $2,655

ARMATREE PASTA (3) could manage only second last time but ran fast time (19.60) at this track over 340m when beaten 2.5 lengths in a Free For All. Can measure up if runs up to latest time. AVA'S MILO (2) hit the frame last time at Dubbo but the start prior rocketed around 340m at this track in 19.41. Has the ability and can find winning form again. COOKIE MAN (8) drew an outside box and was game in defeat when only 0.8 lengths from the winner AVA'S MILO in second(19.43) at this track. Although beaten ran one of the quickest times on the card last start. Expected to be in this for a long way. MY MACHINE (1) can finish much closer after missing a cheque at this track last start.

Hit the frame latest (23.25) when second at Dubbo in a NG. Strong record off the draw with four wins and two minors from eight starts. Looks hard to beat with even luck.

Was among the placegetters latest at this track when a 1.5 lengths third but did clock a fast 19.72 over the 340m trip. Warrants respect.

Got back last start and could only manage fifth but before that won by a neck at this track (20.01) beating Bear Man in a Grade 4/5 on October 8. Prepared to just watch this time.

Missed the frame last start when fifth and beaten 6 lengths at this track. Form solid prior to that including a win at this track three back. Has ability but this tough and will need some luck to feature.

Well supported last time and rocketed out of the boxes with a strong early sectional but had to settle for the minor money, finishing a 0.8 lengths second (19.43) over 340m at this track. Last run is a strong form reference. Worth following up.
