Maitland Race 2 - East Maitland Bowling Club 1-3 Win
BLUE MOON MAGIC (4) placed last time (25.37) at this track in a Grade 5, finishing second and beaten 1.75 lengths. Has already won out of this draw. Expected to go close. SCRUTINISING (2) scored (22.36) last time out at Bulli adding to an already respectable career. Makes plenty of appeal on the back of that last-start win. FUNKY SCAR (1) was seventh in a Grade 5 two back then found trouble in the run and took a tumble at Richmond last time. Expected to feature on best. HOT TO STOP (8) placed in impressive time last start - cannot be ignored.

Nearing another win after his success on August 11 at Gosford over 515m. Last start was second over 450m in 25.37, behind Hot To Rule. Although beaten ran one of the quickest times on the card last time. Follow up.

Won two starts back at this track over 400m in 22.88. Couldn't repeat the feat last time out when fourth over 450m at this track at Grade 5 level. Not suited by wide draw, others have better credentials.

Good effort at double-figure odds last time when second (25.24) over 450m at this track. Wide draw here. Solid top-three prospects.
