Grafton Race 7 - Ladbrokes Thunderbolt Semi Final 3 H
FEDERAL SENOR (8) is a smart dog who ran the fastest time on the card last time scoring by 1.75 lengths (22.09) at Maitland. Superior out of the boxes and will be in the firing line early. Form reads well for this. CAWBOURNE FOCUS (6) was a last start winner (19.65) at Goulburn who is building a strong winning record. The form out of the last run is proven to be strong. Has definite claims. NANGAR ARCHIE (1) boasts a strong record this journey with 24 wins and 13 minors from 45 tries. Comes off a (18.40) win last time, scoring by 4.5 lengths in a NG over 318m at Dubbo. With even luck and a clean start should be thereabouts. TORNADO ETHICS (3) has a solid strike rate at this distance.

Sent out long odds last time but rocketed out of the boxes with a fast early sectional and gave a sight before being swallowed up late, finishing a 1.5 lengths third (19.88) over 350m at this track. Recorded one of the quickest times on the card last time despite being beaten. Follow up.
