Mudgee Race 2

Four In Hand Barossa Shiraz Country Boosted Showcase Mdn Plate

Stake: $45,600

VICIOUS RUMOUR (9) is looking for the 1200m now and gets map favours from the inside gate. Solid run again from the wide gate when second over 1100m at Wellington. No excuses today. WHITTELLO SUN (7) has had merit in his two career runs and he will appreciate the step-up to 1200m. Strong through the line when third over 1000m at Scone. Leading top-three performer. BELLERATA (8) is progressing well and should be at her top here third-up. Sat on the fast tempo when second over 1000m at Scone. Can tag the speed and produce late. Each-way. MAREBELLO (1) lightly raced gelding resuming with a host of gear changes. Improved effort when second over the mile at Kembla Grange last May. Fitted with the one trial placing over 1000m at Bathurst. Respect.
