Cobar Race 4

Hcp (Cl B)

Stake: $7,630

ORCYM BUSBY (4) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1600m at Wagga, beaten 13 lengths into 12th after being in the firing line on the corner. This doesn't look as hard so he is set to turn things around. MONKEY RAT (2) proved too strong two runs ago at Walgett. Couldn't follow that up last time out when fourth over 1250m at Nyngan, beaten 3.5 lengths. Likely improver with strong prospects. POINT TO PROVE (1) fought on for third last start over 1600m at Wean, making it two minor placings in a row. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. YET TOBE A COD (5) settled well back and never threatened when ninth over 1400m at Bathurst last time out. Well placed and should be in the mix. Something for the Multiples: ENCYCLOPEDIA (3)
