Think he’ll be each-way odds and can run well.

Race comment
OVERVIEW: While he often ends up back in the field in his races, I reckon WHERE IS WOODY (4) can give this a real shake should he land close enough from gate four. Last week at Bendigo, he charged home for fourth in a quick race won by the handy Major Blitz, recording the best last half despite covering plenty of extra ground. Think he’ll be each-way odds and can run well. FEARLESS WRITER (6) has good gate speed and has been runner-up to handy rivals both starts this campaign, WILD CARD (1) was only run down by Ideal Bandit last time at Shepparton and gets the nice draw, LOU WILL (2) can figure if he gets across to the pegs as expected, while a few others wouldn’t surprise.

Race comment
OVERVIEW: While he often ends up back in the field in his races, I reckon WHERE IS WOODY (4) can give this a real shake should he land close enough from gate four. Last week at Bendigo, he charged home for fourth in a quick race won by the handy Major Blitz, recording the best last half despite covering plenty of extra ground. Think he’ll be each-way odds and can run well. FEARLESS WRITER (6) has good gate speed and has been runner-up to handy rivals both starts this campaign, WILD CARD (1) was only run down by Ideal Bandit last time at Shepparton and gets the nice draw, LOU WILL (2) can figure if he gets across to the pegs as expected, while a few others wouldn’t surprise.
