Bunbury Race 3 - Bunbury Volkswagen Mdn
OLD MATE HENRY (2) has been beaten a whisker at Belmont his last two and keeps improving. Pike sticks from the latest and the blinkers are applied for the first time. He's back after 8 days and can break through. EXQUISITE TASTE (3) is the threat. Comes out of the same race beaten 1.6L when he led. Has the rail and stripping fitter, he will take pegging back. Tougher sorting the remainder. CLASSIC TURN (7) is third up and should be ready to show her best. That form would have her in the frame. DESIGNER LABEL (5) resumed at Northam off a very long break and didn't do a bad job after jumping slowly. Suited to this trip and should be running into it.

At the latest run did the work up front then tired ran last of 8 at Northam Mdn on September 4 over 1600m, slow going 10 len behind Bondi Star with 56kg at $31. The run before that failed to make an impression; 5th of 8 at Bunbury All Weather Mdn on August 21 over 1275m, 8 len behind Disco Kicks carrying 58kg at $26. Prefer to see him find some form.

First starter. Four-year-old mare by Bondi out of True Glamour. At the most recent trial was out of the placings over 950m at Lark Hill September 8. Doesn't shape as a winning hope today.
