Race comment
OVERVIEW: COOL ROCKING DADDY (7) has returned from a spell in good form and is a winning chance despite the wide draw. He finished fast when second behind Fynn Frost at Melton then was shuffled back on the markers and worked home well late for fifth (4.5m) behind the in-form pacer Equity Stride last outing. NOTA REPLICA (5) was rewarded for his consistent form when he was able to lead throughout and defeat What A Pleasure at Shepparton. He is racing is good form and is likely to give another forward showing. HARRY OVENS (1) is a fast beginner and likes to lead so he is ideally drawn. He uncharacteristically galloped at the start, lost approximately 15m and settled in seventh position before coming out three horses wide from the 500m when a game third ($2-20 fav) at Wagga last week. TRUNKEY TASH (4) finished off well for fourth in the same race at longer odds ($101). CROOKWELL JAKE (6) is an interesting runner. He was racing in claiming events at Menangle when he was last in work and joins trainer Steven Duffy. He has performed well in Victoria previously with several victories at Shepparton and Echuca to his credit so he must be kept safe. EARLY SPEED: 1 (likely leader), 5 RATINGS: 7/ 1,5/ 6/ 2/ 4/ 3

Race comment
OVERVIEW: COOL ROCKING DADDY (7) has returned from a spell in good form and is a winning chance despite the wide draw. He finished fast when second behind Fynn Frost at Melton then was shuffled back on the markers and worked home well late for fifth (4.5m) behind the in-form pacer Equity Stride last outing. NOTA REPLICA (5) was rewarded for his consistent form when he was able to lead throughout and defeat What A Pleasure at Shepparton. He is racing is good form and is likely to give another forward showing. HARRY OVENS (1) is a fast beginner and likes to lead so he is ideally drawn. He uncharacteristically galloped at the start, lost approximately 15m and settled in seventh position before coming out three horses wide from the 500m when a game third ($2-20 fav) at Wagga last week. TRUNKEY TASH (4) finished off well for fourth in the same race at longer odds ($101). CROOKWELL JAKE (6) is an interesting runner. He was racing in claiming events at Menangle when he was last in work and joins trainer Steven Duffy. He has performed well in Victoria previously with several victories at Shepparton and Echuca to his credit so he must be kept safe. EARLY SPEED: 1 (likely leader), 5 RATINGS: 7/ 1,5/ 6/ 2/ 4/ 3

Race comment
OVERVIEW: COOL ROCKING DADDY (7) has returned from a spell in good form and is a winning chance despite the wide draw. He finished fast when second behind Fynn Frost at Melton then was shuffled back on the markers and worked home well late for fifth (4.5m) behind the in-form pacer Equity Stride last outing. NOTA REPLICA (5) was rewarded for his consistent form when he was able to lead throughout and defeat What A Pleasure at Shepparton. He is racing is good form and is likely to give another forward showing. HARRY OVENS (1) is a fast beginner and likes to lead so he is ideally drawn. He uncharacteristically galloped at the start, lost approximately 15m and settled in seventh position before coming out three horses wide from the 500m when a game third ($2-20 fav) at Wagga last week. TRUNKEY TASH (4) finished off well for fourth in the same race at longer odds ($101). CROOKWELL JAKE (6) is an interesting runner. He was racing in claiming events at Menangle when he was last in work and joins trainer Steven Duffy. He has performed well in Victoria previously with several victories at Shepparton and Echuca to his credit so he must be kept safe. EARLY SPEED: 1 (likely leader), 5 RATINGS: 7/ 1,5/ 6/ 2/ 4/ 3
