Maitland Race 6 - J&H Commercial Services
DESPICABLE PEDRO (4) looks close to another win after finishing second last time (22.71) at this track. Has never been out of the money in three starts this course. Strong form has emerged from his last run. Capable of going well again. BLINDSPOT (8) was well in the market last time but only managed fifth (22.62), beaten 7 lengths. Was in the money the start prior. Comes through a solid form race last start. Has ability and is one of the better chances. BEAR'S HEAD (7) has a strong overall record having five wins and 12 places from 24 starts including a last start second (22.21) over 400m at this track. Has a good record here including four wins. Expected to feature on best form. ROAD TO FAME (1) comes back from a let-up as a top three prospect.

Good effort at double-figure odds last time when third (22.83) over 400m at this track. Drawn close to the inside. Others preferred.

Has been in the minors the last two, the latest showing strong pace early but gathered in and finished a 2.75 lengths second over 400m this track in 22.71. The form out of the last run measures up. Hard to beat.

Has been out of the money of late. Could only manage seventh last time out over 450m at this track. Safely held last time and looking to others.

Looks close to another win after his success on May 4 at this track over 400m. Last start was second over 400m in 22.21, behind Layton Magic. Solid formlines coming through that last run. Will be thereabouts.
