Gunnedah Race 5 - Tg Red Chief Motel 8-15
VERY BEST BUDDY (4) was safely held last time out, finishing sixth at this track over 340m behind Glen Alpine (20.94) in a Grade 5. Can bounce back. GHIBELLINE (2) ran good time (23.93) despite finishing fifth in a Grade 5 at Dubbo after finding traffic in the run. Has the ability and can measure up. DREAMS COME TRUE (7) has mixed form recently, finishing fifth (20.42) in a Grade 5 at this track latest but did run well two back when in the frame. Can hit the frame this time. BYE BYE PAT (1) gets a chance to improve on an unplaced run at her latest outing at this circuit.

Has shown little speed out of the boxes and drifts back in her races. Last start finished seventh over 340m at this track, beaten 9 lengths. Prepared to risk on this occasion.

Missed the frame last time but finished in the minors at big odds two back when third (20.03) over 340m at this track. Tough draw to overcome but is worth plenty of thought.

Has not shown much in recent runs. Could only manage fifth last time out over 340m at this track. Others read better.
