Grafton Race 1

Prestige Wedding & Event Hire 2Yo Hcp

Stake: $29,160

WHAT A RUSH (7) got off the mark when resuming from a spell over 1000m at Port Macquarie last start. Improver expected to go close again. SCRIPTUS VIVACE (5) resumes. Impressive debut when saluting as favourite over 1000m at the Sunshine Coast last January. Back without a trial and should have strengthened over the break. MARS LANDING (8) improving with racing and looks close to a win after running fourth over 1200m at Port Macquarie three-and-a-half weeks ago. Has his share of talent and the claim helps again. OL' MATE COOP (4) is back from a spell of four months. Even debut when third over 800m at Coffs Harbour on January 12. Minor claims look best.

On debut. Two-year-old gelding by Endless Drama out of Red Hand. At the most recent trial was out of the placings over 1006m at Port Macquarie April 19. Doesn't shape as a strong winning hope today.

First starter. Two-year-old colt by Churchill out of Sarasota. At the most recent trial finished seventh on April 13 at Grafton over 1015m. Expect he will find this too hard.

Resumes from a spell after only one run when favourite; tracked the speed and boxed on steadily; won by a head at Sunshine Coast 2yo Mdn Hcp January 31 over 1000m defeating Bent Bridge carrying 57.5kg at $2.40. Promising type who can get the job done again.

Second-up. First-up after three months won by 1.1 len at Port Macquarie Ctry Mdn-Sw April 27 over 1000m in heavy going defeating Angels Cloud with 55kg at $14. Previously second-up 2nd in a small field at Coffs Harbour 2yo Mdn-Sw on January 12 over 800m, slow going 5.5 len behind Shaggy with 55kg at $18. Has upside and worth following up.
