Nowra Race 5

Tg Batteries U Need 6-15

Stake: $2,849

DARK CINNAMON (8) turned in a good run last time, finishing in the placings (21.10) at this track in a Grade 5. Lines up from box 8 for the first time. Solid record here at the distance winning two races. The form out of the last run is proven to be strong. Top prospect. EDDY SPAGHETTI (2) is rarely far away but tends to find one better, placing 17 from 31 starts. Continues to race well, filling the minors at the last four starts, the latest when third (20.93) at this track. Form here at the trip sound including two wins. Expected to be in the finish again. HEY ALDO (7) has a strong record this journey here with two wins and a minor from six starts. Missed the frame latest (19.72) when eighth over 340m at Bulli in a Grade 5. Looks well placed here and among the chances. SKETCHY STORY (4) cannot be ruled out.

Could only manage sixth last time but placed two on end prior to that, the latest at double-figure odds when third (21.17) over 365m at this track. Has a fair record off the rails draw but will need to find best.

Comments

Racing well without winning, recording four minors on end, the latest hitting the ground running with a fast early sectional but finishing in the minors again when third (20.93) over 365m at this track. Thereabouts of late and rates highly this line-up. Expected to be in the finish.

Has shown little speed out of the boxes and drifts back in his races. The latest effort was a 17 length sixth over 630m at this track. This looks too tough.

Found some support last start but struggled and finished 7th over 340m at Bulli beaten 4 lengths (19.55) behind Towering Luke in a Grade 5 on April 28. Placed two back at Bulli. Major threat on best form.

Going well prior to a break but was a little below best when resuming, finishing eighth in 19.72 over 340m at Bulli. Doesn't win out of turn but rarely far off. Given another chance.
